I'm not sure I could tell the difference between one brand or another.

Same here. For cooking, I can't tell the difference. But, for dipping, I enjoy the flavored ones.

What did you not like about it?

I went and looked. The label says Kirkland Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tuscany. Then underneath, October-November-December 2020 Harvest.

Just the flavor. I wonder if it wasn't rancid or something.

I tried Bertolli, and liked it much better. Milder, not so interfering with what it was cooking.

[Mik]

That's too old. Did you get it on Amazon?

[Catseye3]

@Mik No, just one of my local grocery stores.

I'm glad you said that -- it gives me a reasonable explanation.

Thanks, Mik. Also everybody else who responded.

Not sure how they would have a Kirkland product. They shouldn't. I suspect someone got hold of old stock somewhere.

[Catseye3]

@Mik Dang it, you're right. It was when I was Instacarting from Costco.

[Mik]

Was that quite a while ago? The one I just bought yesterday is best before November 2023. Did you see the harvest date or the best by date?

Best by July 11, 2022. So yeah, old.

In exchange for your help, I'm sending you this snazzy list of Mediterranean breakfast recipes that I just found:

Thanks! My normal brekkie is either muesli with fruit (blackberries, blueberries, peaches or bananas), or avocado toast, occasionally this thing I make with poached eggs, butter and torn up sourdough toast. All three yum. But I can always use suggestions for healthy breakfast!

[Mik]

Some delicious stuff in there!
