You can make healthy chocolate in minutes with coconut oil, cocao and honey. Add whatever you like such as dried fruit or whatever you like. Put in molds or drop on wax or parchment paper. Refrigerate until it hardens. It will melt fast if 78 degrees or more. I even leave it more liquid and dip fresh fruit into it.
I buy extra virgin olive oil that is 1). In a glass bottle..2). The glass is dark and 3). I look for a red seal that is usually located on the bottom right back of bottle which means it was tested by the olive oil organization and of course olives from only one location..NEVER BUY OLIVE OIL IN PLASTIC BOTTLE..hope this helps.
@@alanserjeant4947 I always bought Kirkland Spanish OO in the plastic gallon & 1/2 Gal., however these bottles are plastic & some oils are blended from Spain, Tunisia, other countries. Walmart has Virgin oils from only one country in dark glass. We're living in scary times where companies infiltrating our food pantry is being compromised w/additives in order to make more quantity.
@@alanserjeant4947 Ahh, but things taste better when stored in glass. And I wonder if there may be some leeching of the plastic into the olive oil. Maybe not, I don't know. But I only by EVOO in glass containers. 😊
Praying is a waste of time. Ask Africans why they are the most praying people & the poorest on earth. Africans were praying during slavery. Maybe God is racist. Why would the enslavers teach the enslaved how to pray if praying works? Yet, the enslavers hide the farming tools from the enslaved. That is why in USA we are not that religious because we know the truth deep down. It all BS to control & keep people down.

Touring Portugal I asked a shopkeeper about oil since I found their local ones were so good. I was told to look for low acidity. Note at 2:35 where the bottle lists acidity, the lower the better. Most oils do not list acidity. Goya is another brand that does, however it is in a clear bottle.
I live in Australia and one very important thing you rarely see here on olive oil bottles is the DATE OF BOTTLING. What you can rarely determine is how long the bottle has been sitting around in a warehouse or on the supermarket shelf.
I like to get a date of harvest. Some California vendors do this. Calobri? The stuff was great, nice grassy taste. But I went carnivore and use butter now.
@@uncareid5557 Thanks for your reply. Here in Australia, the olive oils we can buy in our supermarkets or boutique deli's are sourced primarily from Australia, Italy, Spain, Greece. I've never come across any Californian oils anywhere here . How to tell when the olives have been harvested? All but impossible! I looked at my bottles at home today. Best I could see was 2023. No month, just last year. Some brands and varieties don't even show this. Merely a use by date. How old? Who knows... At farmers markets or shows you can get local varieties which will tell you what you want to know. However, these locals are generally at a premium $$$$ above what you'll pay for in your supermarkets here . So as a consumer here, most of the time you don't really know what you're actually buying .
I'm in Melbourne, Australia. I buy Cobram Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Made in Cobram (a regional town in Victoria). Dark green bottle and label states year of harvest and a best before use by date.
I learn really fast to read the olive oil bottles. I bought one that in the back said it has canola oil in it. I used it for my daughter that is allergic to olives. Thank you for the advice, it makes sense to buy oil from one place only. Thank you.
I buy Tunisian olive oil because by law they can't use pesticides, it must be bottled within 4 hrs of harvest, and the harsh growing conditions fortify the product, and it tastes good
Thank you so much, considering I literally just used the "Pompeian" olive oil today as an anointing oil [by faith] ❤️🔥 your content is a refreshing source. I do want my body to thank me.
I was told many of the things. You stated however an “ expert “ told me that real extra virgin olive oil should have a slight “ flowery taste ( you’ll know what that means when you taste one.) and about 10-20 seconds later a very mild “ peppery “ taste. Also just recently it was announced that pure virgin olive oil has been shown to reduce the chances of or stop the progression of dementia.
Aussie girl here,I've been using Olive Oil for over 30 years now, and wont use anything else. for a long time I've been buying a brand that comes from a farm in the state of South Australia where I live. they grow all their own Olives, then pick, and first cold press and bottle the oil all on their farm. its the best Extra virgin Olive Oil I've used. another tip for anyone who wants to check their Olive oil is genuine , and not mixed with other oils, is to pop your bottle of Oil in the fridge overnight. then take it out in the morning. if it hasnt gone all thick and gluggy, then you have a fake Olive Oil, or one thats been processed more that a good quality first cold pressed one. a really good Olive Oil will thicken and you wont be able to pour it until it reaches room temperature.
It is interesting test. I can tell you I tested many brands of EVOO including organic pure. Found none that solidified in 24 hours or even 3 days so I gave up on those tests I follow by the taste .When I drink it a bit and it gives me a little burn sensation in my throat It seems to be one I like. Does any other seed oils give the same sensation?
I have also read that oil from Italy could also be contaminated with other oils especially if certain organizations are involved in the distributing and making of the oils. So, just because it says it's from Italy and 100% pure does not make it so. Has anyone heard this as well? Because I am becoming frustrated with finding the purest oils.
Leisure lane, exactly. Just because a bottle might be from one country of origin does not in any way have anything to do with the quality of oil nor is it an indication that there is added seed and vegetable oils. That just sounded so ridiculous to me I'm never listening to this lady again. Go sell your books somewhere else.
My favorite place to buy olive oil is called Olive Tap and can be found online. Their oils and vinegars are delicious. Very expensive, yes, but the taste is like none other, in my opinion. And healthy as well.
I love olive oil i made my own remedy from olive oil to cure my Gouts or arthritis. And its really good for me I'm 65 yrs old now and thank God i can walk to far and hiking as well
@@paulaknapp4592 Just consume about a tablespoon in the day, every day. You can mix it in cottage cheese, whatever you want. Bread. Just get it into your system. DAILY. No, not a doctor or scientist. COMMON SENSE. lol
I have a friend who was a chemist that told me only to buy first cold pressed. After the first pressing they use chemicals to release more oil on subsequent pressing. Blessings from Australia for your efforts.
That is correct. Consumer Reports had a review of olive oil’s a few issues back in the rated the California 100% is one of the best olive oil’s out there.
I do not trust any oils from California. I've tested them by putting a little in a plastic cup and then putting that in the frig for a few days. If it doesn't start to turn a slushy solid texture...then it is fake Olive oil. The ones I did this with from California all failed. The ones from Italy all passed. Fake oils will remain oily after a few days in the frig. This is a great way to test Olive Oils but some on youtube try to call this test a myth. Think about how much money they'll lose if everyone finds out about how to do this simple test! The test actually works extremely well. Others have done it on UA-cam and shown how many Olive oils are fake.
Thank you so much and be blessed in Jésus-Christ name dear Annette. 0:07 every time I am watching your videos I am always learned the new things. Much love from Australia 🇦🇺
I would normally agree with one country but the bottle you showed was from Carapelli which is a reputable company among the most highly rated major Italian oil producers. If they are using multiple countries it's because a) supplies in Italy and other Mediterranean countries have been difficult due to record temperatures and diaastrously low rainfall and b) they are looking for consistency of taste and so blending carefully. I've been living in Italy for 25 years and have tried numerous oils from across the country. I would have absolute confidence their oil.
My grandmother was from Sicily. She would get large tins of olive oil imported to her from Sicily during WWII till the day she died. I often remembered going to her house and dipping bread in olive oil just chomping it down. The olive oil was smooth, soft and had a gentle taste. I had watched Nick Stellino on PBS one time. He said that the best olive oils have a slightly sweet taste. I've never found one that had that.

Just bought some Costco (Kirkland) olive oil. A California (Sacramento Valley) blend that hits all the right notes including a harvest date (which is Fall 2023) ! Less then .03% acidity and a real good price too: about $11 a liter bottle.
How did you come to that conclusion ? Perhaps you are referring to some other oil Costco sells? They do sell some lame olive oils for sure. This is Kirkland Signature brand and is incredible. As I said, a harvest date (see if you can find that on the label your favorite olive oil), less than .03% acidity and a sharp peppery taste, straight. Some of the best olives in the world are grown in California and this brand showcases them.
@@Saverio49I have seen a review on Kirkland Olive Oil and it was one of the best and real oils.. The review also talked of other brands that were not oure Olive Oil.. Though it is not in a glass bottle it still remained (accordint to review) one of the best on the market.. Organic Extra Virgin..
If I remember right I was watching Test Kitchen and Cooks Country on PBS. Their choice of olive oil is Pompeian and Bertolli and other cooks prefer Colavita
I lived in Greece for four years in the 80s and I fell in love with the food and the olive oil there was great and the beautiful big olives. What was strange is I found out that I am allergic to the Olive Tree but not the olive oil and olives witch seems strange.
Thank you for the information I am very impressed at the way you manage your Adds throughout the video they are short and Suttle and hardly even brake the line of information being given very clever
The US ships our regulated food to other countries and in return they ship their unregulated stuff back to us . Like we ship our chemical free oats to Canada and we buy back their chemical laden oats to abide by our free trade deal .
That is one of the best ways to test it. thats what I was taught. the brand I buy is all single origin from one farm where they grow, harvest and first cold press their oil all on the farm, in South Australia where I live, so it doesnt leave their property from start to finish until its bottled and shipped out. expensive at $19 for a 700ml bottle but its so worth it for the flavour and how good it is.
Interestingly the fridge test is not dependable.. I can tell you I tested many brands of EVOO including organic pure. Found none that solidified in 24 hours or even 3 days so I gave up on those tests I follow by the taste .When I drink it a bit and it gives me a little burn sensation in my throat It seems to be the one I like.

The Italians have a saying.... Young oil, Old wine. Buy oil from your own country which will be the freshest. Locally grown, cold pressed, extra virgin.
What ticks me off, is pure olive oil is so expensive, that the common person can't afford it. I use the ones I buy for baking and frying mainly. I don't like a strong olive taste, so I buy the EVOO. It may not be from one country, but it is the only ingredient it shows on the bottle and it is for baking and frying. It is in the medium range of oil prices, but I am trying to give my husband the healthiest we can afford.
I live in Oklahoma, and unfortunately there are no real grocery store like what I grew with in Texas. So I have to use Amazon for several products. I've done some searches and have found good reviews for the following brand. Atlas 750 mL Organic Cold Press Extra Virgin Olive Oil with Polyphenol Rich from Morocco. Yes there are several better brands out there, but they start at over $50 a bottle and living paycheck to paycheck, those brands will never make it to my current shopping list.
@@Tracy-wr7mj They have a good selection of Fall 2023 harvest from Spain and Greece right now, not so much for Italy. I just ordered Entelia and Nobleza del Sur Tradicion 1640 Picual a couple of hours ago.
Vicente thanks for your comments but here Tanzania 🇹🇿 I usually see plastic bottles from Europe it's better to bring the glass dark bottles and real pure olive oil thanks
I think the best thing to do is to buy a 50# sack of green olives and press the dang things OURSELVES at HOME. Hate the Lying and Corporate Dishonesty and the Dishonesty in the FDA as well. We all are being DECEIVED.
I have just started with olive oil and I am using California Olive Ranch medium that is claimed to be good, however it is bland from other countries. The next bottle I have is Atlas Organic Cold Press Extra Virgin olive oil only coming from one country, Morocco. The Atlas may be the better choice between the two.
I am confused Annette. Could you be more specific about brands, to purchase? Do we solely purchase from one place of origin? Only in the US? What kind do you purchase? Thank you.
Elaine, I'd say throw out everything she said and go get different opinions. In no way did this lady convince me that she knows what she's talking about.
Elaine, I suggest you buy from Costco to get started. They control their process from the Olive groves right to their stores to prevent criminal dilution.
Argentina has great wines, but not many know that it is also a land of high-quality argentine olive oil. We buy it at The Fresh Food Market, We also love olive oil from Greece . So when I see Argentina or Greece in the label I know it will be good!
I been buying Filippo Berio which does say that the oil comes from a number of countries but it is packed in Italy.

Unfortunately in New Zealand some of the supermarkets are trying to only stock their own supermarkets brand of so called olive oil. On the bottle it says made in... It's ingredients list more than one kind of olive oil so we just don't know what we are consuming
Use it for all of my cooking and baking. It's good for sauteeing and carmelizing, but it will smoke if you put too much heat on it. On the other hand, if you are frying foods in oil that hot, maybe you shouldn't be eating them.
I gave up on olive oil. California olive ranch i used to buy if you make a mix of it and vinegar and water it turns whiteand solid, tastes awful and not really olive oil. All others i looked at in glass bottles had several different countries of origin.
I didn't know there was so much to take into consideration about olive oil.. I always thought as long as it was extra virgin olive oil it was the good stuff.. Yes, the olive oil that I have been buying have about 4 or 5 different countries listed on the bottle of where the olives came from.. I guess that's why it's like 15 dollars for a half gallon plastic tub and the better quality olive oils that are less than half the size that are in a glass bottle are much more expensive considering the amount..
It should be stored in a dark bottle, but also it should be a glass bottle = that's very important ~ and it should be extra virgin olive oil = very important.
The only olive oil I can get on this tiny island here in the Philippines is the Filippo Berio brand. The label says it is a product of Italy (with extra virgin olive oils from EU origin). It has a use by date but no origin date. I am skeptical about the "olive oils from EU origin"! It does have a fruity taste but also burns my throat slightly when I take it. Am I being fooled here?
I get my olive oil from Israel. They grow their own trees and process it there. It is Galilee Green. They are a small business and send you out recipes. Plus you support Israel- God’s people!! The taste is amazing!!

I lived in Greece for four years in the 80s and I fell in love with the food and the olive oil there was great and the beautiful big olives. What was strange is I found out that I am allergic to the Olive Tree but not the olive oil and olives witch seems strange.
Thank you for the information I am very impressed at the way you manage your Adds throughout the video they are short and Suttle and hardly even brake the line of information being given very clever
Thank you , I learned not to be hasty and get the best .
😮tthank you. I needed to hear this
I have done my research and I have settled on a brand called Partanna
They lied about olive oil, then what else have they lied about?
The US ships our regulated food to other countries and in return they ship their unregulated stuff back to us . Like we ship our chemical free oats to Canada and we buy back their chemical laden oats to abide by our free trade deal .
EVERYTHING!
@nowandthennn the FDA is the enemy!
The fridge test (pure olive oil will solidify at fridge temperatures) is not fool-proof but is an additional test that you may want to try.
I know that coconut oil solidifies but I had never thought about evoo !
That is one of the best ways to test it. thats what I was taught. the brand I buy is all single origin from one farm where they grow, harvest and first cold press their oil all on the farm, in South Australia where I live, so it doesnt leave their property from start to finish until its bottled and shipped out. expensive at $19 for a 700ml bottle but its so worth it for the flavour and how good it is.
Interestingly the fridge test is not dependable.. I can tell you I tested many brands of EVOO including organic pure. Found none that solidified in 24 hours or even 3 days so I gave up on those tests I follow by the taste .When I drink it a bit and it gives me a little burn sensation in my throat It seems to be the one I like. Does any other seed oils give the same sensation?
I have just tried the fridge method and I found that the fridge only makes it gooey but freezing will solidify it.
So veg oil won't?
My fav is Partanna and when the stock is gone Cal. ranch is my backup.
I use pork fat. I render it myself. Been doing it for years. And at 73 . I'm very healthy.
Amen
You can eat garbage if you want and it just means you have good constitution. I wish You continued health in spite of eating garbage .
That's right. Too much calcium in it. @jerrystephens939
@@jerrystephens939you know nothing also. Lard is healthier than any seed oils and best for frying, better than olive oil Infact
@@judymills2362there's no calcium in lard
The Italians have a saying.... Young oil, Old wine. Buy oil from your own country which will be the freshest. Locally grown, cold pressed, extra virgin.
I thought that saying was "Young women, Old wine." .
What ticks me off, is pure olive oil is so expensive, that the common person can't afford it. I use the ones I buy for baking and frying mainly. I don't like a strong olive taste, so I buy the EVOO. It may not be from one country, but it is the only ingredient it shows on the bottle and it is for baking and frying. It is in the medium range of oil prices, but I am trying to give my husband the healthiest we can afford.
I live in Oklahoma, and unfortunately there are no real grocery store like what I grew with in Texas. So I have to use Amazon for several products. I've done some searches and have found good reviews for the following brand. Atlas 750 mL Organic Cold Press Extra Virgin Olive Oil with Polyphenol Rich from Morocco. Yes there are several better brands out there, but they start at over $50 a bottle and living paycheck to paycheck, those brands will never make it to my current shopping list.
olive oil lovers is a website with good evoo...its inbetween harvests if the hemisheres si they are light..march sometime should bring on new harvest.
@@Tracy-wr7mj They have a good selection of Fall 2023 harvest from Spain and Greece right now, not so much for Italy. I just ordered Entelia and Nobleza del Sur Tradicion 1640 Picual a couple of hours ago.
I just purchased Farchioni Casolare Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a glass bottle (not dark) and it taste amazing.
True. I love it as well. I also like Il Grezzo cold pressed evoo which is amazing too!
Vicente thanks for your comments but here Tanzania 🇹🇿 I usually see plastic bottles from Europe it's better to bring the glass dark bottles and real pure olive oil thanks
Thank You for this information.❤
Thank You so much, I appreciate your ministry Annette.
You are welcome.
I think the best thing to do is to buy a 50# sack of green olives and press the dang things OURSELVES at HOME. Hate the Lying and Corporate Dishonesty and the Dishonesty in the FDA as well. We all are being DECEIVED.
Good video but would be helpful to consumers if you could recommend EVOO products to buy.
Thank you for the information. Good stuff all around..
So which one is the best
Hello from the Marshall Islands. Thank you so much for sharing ❤
You are so welcome
I have just started with olive oil and I am using California Olive Ranch medium that is claimed to be good, however it is bland from other countries. The next bottle I have is Atlas Organic Cold Press Extra Virgin olive oil only coming from one country, Morocco. The Atlas may be the better choice between the two.
I buy my olive oil from Azure Standard
Thank you ma'am !!
Welcome!
I am confused Annette. Could you be more specific about brands, to purchase? Do we solely purchase from one place of origin? Only in the US? What kind do you purchase? Thank you.
Elaine, I'd say throw out everything she said and go get different opinions. In no way did this lady convince me that she knows what she's talking about.
Elaine, I suggest you buy from Costco to get started. They control their process from the Olive groves right to their stores to prevent criminal dilution.
I was expecting she would give names but I think she can't, she probably would be suited...
@@desertodavidsame
@@alanserjeant4947no! Costco is the last place to purchase good olive oil! It’s pure junk
Thank you for letting me know about oils and you are right ❤
Now I’m more confused than before I watched the video
Argentina has great wines, but not many know that it is also a land of high-quality argentine olive oil. We buy it at The Fresh Food Market, We also love olive oil from Greece . So when I see Argentina or Greece in the label I know it will be good!
Thanks for sharing updates about oil
I have California Olive Ranch and Bertolli Olive Oils in my house. I like the California Olive Ranch best out of the two.
which cooking oil is best for frying and baking, Ghee, extra virgin olive oil and Avocado oil?
I like Virginia coconut oil
Avocado, grapessed, Hemp, Walnut, sesame
Thank you for the your information. Happy St. Patrick's Day.
You are so welcome
Didn't realise several of the things mentioned, Thank you 😛
I been buying Filippo Berio which does say that the oil comes from a number of countries but it is packed in Italy. I want to switch to a one origin oil but the cost skyrockets when you find one that fits that specification and that type of oil product is very hard to find here in eastern Massachusetts
Thank you so much I was always wondering why the label says multiple countries
Thank you for the tip on olive oil
You are so welcome!
What about the olive oil that Vito Corleone imports from Sicily, is that a good one? 😮
Thank you from Wilmington Delaware❤
You are welcome!
I buy Braggs, it meets all requirements and its in a dark glass bottle...a few buck extra but worth it.
Braggs is the first of 5 or 6 I've used that gives me the sense that it's the real deal.
Thank you for this wonderful information...
This is a good video. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!

I’ve been looking for olive oil that actually tastes good. I haven’t found any yet.
Unfortunately in New Zealand some of the supermarkets are trying to only stock their own supermarkets brand of so called olive oil. On the bottle it says made in... It's ingredients list more than one kind of olive oil so we just don't know what we are consuming
I love the benefits of olive oil! I try to use it daily. Thanks for the info!😊
You are so welcome!
Use it for all of my cooking and baking. It's good for sauteeing and carmelizing, but it will smoke if you put too much heat on it. On the other hand, if you are frying foods in oil that hot, maybe you shouldn't be eating them.
I'm in Pontiac, Michigan
Nice video , which one do you use ?
Thank You for this.
You're very welcome!
Thank you, and God bless you.
How about if it just says "Product of Tunsia?" It's from Swanson and is certified organic, but there are no harvesting countries listed.
What about the extra virgin olive oils?
I gave up on olive oil. California olive ranch i used to buy if you make a mix of it and vinegar and water it turns whiteand solid, tastes awful and not really olive oil. All others i looked at in glass bottles had several different countries of origin.
I didn't know there was so much to take into consideration about olive oil.. I always thought as long as it was extra virgin olive oil it was the good stuff.. Yes, the olive oil that I have been buying have about 4 or 5 different countries listed on the bottle of where the olives came from.. I guess that's why it's like 15 dollars for a half gallon plastic tub and the better quality olive oils that are less than half the size that are in a glass bottle are much more expensive considering the amount..
It should be stored in a dark bottle, but also it should be a glass bottle = that's very important ~ and it should be extra virgin olive oil = very important.
Annette thank you for your video. Can I cook and fry with extra virgin olive oil?
Thanks for great information. I’m better equipped to buy olive oil
Just because it's from one place doesn't mean much these days as they have been shown to dilute with cheaper oils. Especially the more expensive ones.
Could you advice of thr the authentic extra virgin olive oil .
Please... am subscribing from Papua 🇵🇬 new guinea.
The only olive oil I can get on this tiny island here in the Philippines is the Filippo Berio brand. The label says it is a product of Italy (with extra virgin olive oils from EU origin). It has a use by date but no origin date. I am skeptical about the "olive oils from EU origin"! It does have a fruity taste but also burns my throat slightly when I take it. Am I being fooled here?

Thank you for the information, love olive oil..❤❤❤❤
Me too!!
Thanks so many people have no idea.
Give examples how to test it at home. 🙂🙏✝️
I get my olive oil from Israel. They grow their own trees and process it there. It is Galilee Green. They are a small business and send you out recipes. Plus you support Israel- God’s people!! The taste is amazing!!
