Ok, this can or not be for doggies,,,,,,,,, but, it's time for me to get more olive oil and i want it to be GOOD! Im in the US and have always gotton extra virgin cold processed, organic (i think) olive oil but this Gundry dr keeps popping up on my feed so now i want to know a brand to buy to make my head clear that im getting a good one. soooooooooooo anyone????? and yep, am requesting [MENTION=15310]helsonwheels[/MENTION] attention as well, i mean, common,,, Italy must have the best :) so, patiently waiting :)
 
After having brought home big heavy cans of olive oil from Greek monasteries several times, we have now gone over to an Italian brand available in our local grocery shop: Monini. I'm no expert on contents or potential health benefits but at least here, it's one of those brands that always gets good reviews when olive oils are tested and we think it works really well for cooking as well as on sallads etc. And it's not ghastly expensive.

But Castor hasn't tried it - he has his own bottle of oil:)

Thank you,,, i will look that up for sure. I bought Hank a bottle of hemp oil. Not sure how to use it but i add it every few days...
 
Looked it up... looks GOOD.. And what i love Olive oil for is the taste. I love a splash on salad, toped on my spaghetti etc.... Has to be good that way mostly. And i think i want 'cold pressed' ? I dont see that in the description??

I too give the pups Hemp. But I also do give them EVOO. Now the problem nowadays are so many fakes ones out there. Being Italian blood 200% n raised on olive oils, I will have to admit the Greeks n Spain has also top notch oils. I love the Greek ones. Very dark green in colour...Shuuuu don’t tell my ancestors! The thing you need to look for is the certification of where it’s made, how old...well put it this way, it’s like a quality wine. Look for all the stamps on it like the photo I’ve attached. That was a gift but a yummy from a customer. It’s from Spain more on a bright yellow colour. They need to be in a dark bottle or can. I like European oils as their soil is different. Even when I buy homemade pasta it will come from Italy. If I make pasta flour will come from Italy or along the Mediterranean. A quality oil is expensive but you won’t need a ton of it either as it boosts of flavour. Again you pay more, you get quality n use less. No brainer. One teaspoon per day is great for the dogs. I will say something odd but when I go shopping at Winner’s n I think in the US they’re called TGMax? Or Marshall? Go look in their food section. Often I find great quality oils. But yes check the certifications on them. If it’s to cook everyday you don’t use these expensive ones. Hope this helps.

I wouldn’t buy oil on Amazon but that’s me. A lot of countries do ship overseas now. Sometimes cheaper than amazon... just a thought :)
 
yea,, i kinda counted that out but i did see some Moroccan oil that looked interesting :)
