I use olive oil with my stainless, but everything else gets bacon grease, beef tallow, or duck fat.

I use avocado pretty exclusively now while cooking. It has a much higher smoke point when cooking when compared to olive oil. I do think olive oil has a better taste though.

Oddly enough, I ordered 6x3L cans from Masseria Salamina a couple weeks ago. Should be good for about a year.

Of all the things to worry about getting hard to find, this has to be one of the dumbest. Just use a different fricking oil

Olive oil is one of the most counterfeited products out there.

The best way to buy real olive oil in the US is to buy California olive oil. The majority of imported olive oils are suspect.

Same with honey. Should only buy local honey.

Yup. Single origin California olive oil and honey that came from bees that are close enough that I could visit during a lunch break. I’m normally not terribly picky about staples like that, but there’s just too much frickery that goes on in those two industries.

Grass fed ghee, butter, and tallow are all the oils I need.

Even if it is 100% olive oil, especially the cheaper stuff is often dregs from old harvests and even rancid when bottled.
