Italy is where you want your olive oil to come from. At Costco single sourced from Italy. When it grabs your throat you know you have the good stuff. I agree with Mel. Our food is poison here in the US.
In Revelation. Sorcerers aka pharmekea are ones that poison another.
almost ALL of the olive oil that makes it to america, is adulterated or lies.
The oil industry in Italy is mob run, so even IF costco thinks its 100% italian oil, its been cut with inferior olive oils before it gets here.
Tons of documentaries on this topic on youtube. But 99% of ALL "made in italy" olive oils, are not 100% italian.
Its a sad fact. I once went to italy and picked my own olives and took them to a local press (one family runs their batch for a few hours, then the next group) and I took home some NEON GREEN fresh EVOO, and it was THE BEST fucking olive oil I've ever had. NOTHING compares to what I know is 100% unadulterated evoo. The look, the smell, the taste, almost every oil on American shelves, IS NOT PURE italian oil....
Edit: Some pics from my oil pressing, and fresh bread they had us put our 4 minute old olive oil onto to taste test our production run: https://i.imgur.com/DxfDfiU.jpeg
Well that is disappointing news. I thought my source was the holy grail of olive oil. Nevertheless thank you for the heads up.
I mean, it IS, as its the best oil there is, but nobody knows exactly whats in there. The italian mob controls almost ALL of the oil leaving italy, so do not trust what the label says, its likely been watered down at every step with olive oils from nearby cheaper countries. And you never know how much or with what, as they obviously wont tell you what or how much they cut.
Just do a quick search on youtube for "fake italian olive oil" and start learning up, lots of big name companies (like business insder, etc) have done stories on this topic. Its RAMPANT for italin olive oil to never be pure, unmolested oil. Which is why the stuff I pressed, bottled, and took pictures of at every step of the process, was so fucking delicious, it was 100% pure and I know for a FACT it was legit, since it never left my company
Yes I believe you because I can tell you spent a lot of time on research into this subject.
While I think the Costco brand is better than many of the others but it is not up to the holy grail Olive oil that you discovered.
When you swallow your brand does it go down rugged like it chokes you? So that you have to follow up with water?
Huh?
I was only able to bring home 3 liters (my family friend's olive farm only had like 90 trees, and the harvest took 3 days and netted us all like 30 liters think?)
But AT the pressing place (was two small rooms) they provide you fresh bread slices so you can pour some brand new olive oil to taste it. It was DELICIOUS on italian fresh bread. It had a spicey kind of freshness I dunno how to describe, aside from it being packed with smooth flavor.
Iunno about having to drink water as shooters or anything, it wasn't that bad. here are some pics from us pressing and eating the oil within minutes of being pressed: https://i.imgur.com/DxfDfiU.jpeg
I'm jealous of the divine healthy food they have abroad.
That looks like a laboratory, all for creating the holy grail of olive oil. But from what I've read good olive oil has many healing characteristics.
its not. It was a tiny little house in Rufina, tuscany, where every family goes to get their olives pressed. A tiny little building with two rooms. Looks clean, because its food processing, did you want dirty barn with cow shit everywhere, with live oxen turning the millstone or something?
What about the Greek and "middle eastern" varieties?
I don't know. I just know the mob has a stranglehold on italian EVOO, and adulteration and watering down with inferior olive oils happens at every step of the process, and America is left with unknown, falsified origin oils. Sad, but thats how it is.
Yebbit...Surely, the Olive Garden has the BEST oil
You better know I'm kidding...lol
I get mine from Greece, single source. Ellora Farms. Expensive but awesome.
I think the idea is single source as in from a single country so it can be tracked to the grower, not many countries and many growers that water down the product.
Just look at the lable on the bottle and if it says sourced from like six countries I would pass.
Try the Costco Kirkland brand from Italy and traced back to the growers.
Yes. Our demon is pharmekea.
Amen brother.
And it could still be adulterated, besides bacon grease has more healthy PUFAs.
Stop eating refined sugar and processed carbohydrates and watch how fast you lose weight. Processed carbs are a massive problem in the United States. Also the "fortification" of white flour makes our flour nothing but crap.
Stop bread then, pizza, pasta, noodle? What do I eat?
I am mostly vegetarian.
LOL yeah, it sucks for sure. Buy pasta that is made in Italy not the US. I use Italian flour and make my own bread and pizza dough. It's actually easy but anything worth doing is worth the work.
Where do you get them?
You can get Caputo flour online and in some specialty grocery stores. It's a very good flour. There's also a good French one called Farine Del Ble Tous which can be obtained online.
Why did I never think of this? You’re brilliant, thank you!
Yes! I use Caputo flour to make Neopolitan pizza. Will be working on pasta dough this winter.
meats, eggs, cheeses, fruits, vegetables, nuts, there is a shitload of food that doesnt have "bread" in it.
Its pretty easy to start avoiding "bread" (and pasta)
Count me out...
Ive been told, that if you buy ITALIAN pasta, that they use actual italian wheat (not american GMO trash) so you CNA eat pasta, and not get the inflammation, IBS, weight gain, etc. I try and only buy premium pastas that specifically say grown in italy, and I do still eat stuff, but I try to NEVER eat american GoySlop, like "wonder bread" (fucking gross) and shit like that. Only german rye breads, swedish hono round breads, etc.
So look into buying ITALIAN pastas (and MADE in italy, not just american made pasta with italian sounding names)
Italian “00” Flour is the key for home made pasta....
Rice and potato be okay then?
Yes unless otherwise allergic. And, cook your rice with 1T coconut oil per cup of dry rice, then refrigerate for at least 12 hours. This transforms up to 70% of the digestible starches into indigestible, cutting carbs n calories by that much. Basically, make it a day ahead.
If you have an Instant Pot, rice is incredibly easy. I've lately been using mine for all sorts of stuff - whole chickens, potatoes/sweet potatoes, all kinds of vegetables, beef roasts, home-made dog food (one of my dogs is old and dry food seems to hurt his teeth), and a ton of other stuff. I just do an Internet search for "instant pot sweet potatoes" (for example) and pick the best recipe.
My oldest daughter got the wife and me a meat-grinder attachment for my Kitchen-Aid stand mixer for Christmas this year and massively shortened the time it took us to add meat to my dog's food.
By the way - if anyone is interested in how to make dog food, look up Instant Pot dog food recipes. I have a food-safe 5 gallon bucket from Tractor Supply and a 2 foot paint/dry-wall mud mixer I use to put all the cooked stuff into and use my drill with the paint mixer to mix everything up, then bag the proper amount of food in small ziploc bags and freeze them. I end up making about 6 weeks of food for him at a time. I usually crush some of the dry food (my other dogs still eat it) and sprinkle some on top once I thaw a pack and heat it for about 45 seconds - just in case I'm missing some of the vitamins. I will use carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, green beans, peas (any dog-safe veggies I have on-hand at the time), and for meat I rotate between turkey, chicken, beef, salmon, venison, or anything else I have extras of. Just MAKE SURE you don't use things bad for dogs, like onions or garlic for example.
Oh, nice to know. Appreciate it.
I mean those make you fat, too, but not much rice comes from the USA. And I don't think we get much of ANY potatoes form abroad, but if you cut down on all these unhealthy carbs, you will lose weight.
I lost 60 pounds in 6 months without ANY exercise, I only ate lean meats like salmon chunks, and a HEAPING plate of various veggies, and cut out all the bullshit carbs...
But you need to replace most of your foods with frozen veggies (green ones, not just corn and carrots which have a shitload of sugar and calories). I would seriously eat a 1/4 pound chunk of frozen salmon (was $1 ack in 2009) and then 1 pound of assorted frozen veggies on a plate. That was my meal. Cut out junk foods, cut out sugars, cut out most of your potatoes corn rice and other useless starches/carbs, and you can lose weight by EATING LEAN AND HEALTHY
Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Texas all grow rice, but I don't know how to specifically find it in stores - we might export it or send it to other states.
Most rice will label its country of origin, just read the labels and see where it was grown. The ONLY rice I've ever gotten from the USA, was black wild rice. Everything else comes from india and places around there. (make sure you ALWAYS rinse your rice 5-20 times, sometimes I need to do it 15 or more times until the water runs clear)
Great reminder - thanks!
You could eat other vegetarians, but they probably ate the bad stuff as well. Wait - is eating a vegetarian considered vegetarian?
I guess you can follow this post and grow your own stuff. Hat-tip to u/Tetartos_Ippeas for her post - it was pretty informative. Unfortunately I have a spinach allergy (makes me have food-poisoning symptoms and bad stomach cramps for 2 days) and I don't like kale but there are a bunch of other veggies to pick from. I'm gonna try some of those once I have the money to buy the stuff to plant and the tools and other stuff to do it. My yard here in East Texas is probably 75% sand, so some of the vegetables will require me to make a raised garden bed. I might end up with chickens this year anyway though.

Any time fren.
No you cannot eat a vegetarian or even a vegan. LOL

Or grind your own grain so you get all the nutrients needed to properly digest grain, and all the micro nutrients we probably don’t even know about yet. There are small electric grain mills available for home use.
Been wondering where the steak, chicken, pork, etc the stores sell here come from. Its so tough it dull a sharp knife in one attempted cut. Also, the ground beef is so tough its like chewing gum. Totally disgusting.... what the hell are we suppose to eat? vitamins dont fill us up.
Yeah, I can eat my friend's eggs all day long.
eggs all the time? uhhhg. lol
Read up on how to cook different cuts of meat so it isn’t tough. Also, grain fed beef isn’t as available— grass fed is more available, and that means less fat and marbling, which is what makes meat tender.
ty didnt think about grass vs grain fed moo cows.
Local meat markets are the only way for me...
Get with the farmers. 1/4 or 1/2 cow, price is same or cheaper than store and quality is infinitely better. Amish areas have markets everywhere, and sell good stuff there too. Some of them just sell repacked commercial or groccery store stuff, most though, the meat and cheese are good stuff.
Cheap amish cheese beats best store bough every day of the week.
I get amish longhorn colby for 2.39/lb, vs $3.5 to $5/lb at kroger depending on brand and sales. The quality difference is no contest. It may taste kind of odd at first, the groccery store cheese is so gross and fake, you wont be used to the real stuff.
Agree with good food tasting funny at first because its not stuffed with sugar salt and chemicals
Buy local grass fed, grass finished beef in bulk from a local ranch. I understand this isn’t affordable for everyone.
I finally took the plunge, bought a cheap freezer and bought 100 pounds for $12 per pound. That’s 30lb ground and the rest was steaks and roasts. Was totally worth it, the beef is amazing.
I still use grocery store meat cause I can’t afford to eat the good stuff everyday but it’s better than nothing.
ty for the info! yes, most people cant afford good food, thats why they stuff chemicals in the cheaper food. To kill us off faster or send us to doctors for pills. Lasting conditions
Rome poisoned the whole planet but made sure to keep her own back yard clean? figures
Interesting, isn't it.
Eh, we've completely stopped using olive oil for over a year now. Avocado oil is where it's at. It's better at everything except tasting like olives.
How about butter or coconut oil?
I was using coconut oil years ago but stopped because I read something about it not being good for you. I don't remember what exactly though.
Butter- We use animal fats a lot. I've tried to taper back on all pig meat too just because of it being a dirty animal that is prone to parasites. We don't avoid it like the plague but for instance now I order breakfast tacos, when we don't make from scratch at home, with picadillo instead of bacon.
Any beef we buy is trimmed before cooking. I make tallow out of all trimmings and then the tallow gets used for cooking. I recently started making flour tortillas from scratch using beef tallow I rendered myself.
You are good. Thanks.
