What’s the Deal with: Virgin and Extra Virgin Olive Oil
By FitSugar
As we all learned from the Butter or Margarine Quiz olive oil is a much healthier alternative. Butter is bad for your heart since it is high in saturated fats, and most margarines are made from hydrogenated oil so they contain trans fats which raises your cholesterol.
OK back to olive oil – what’s the difference between virgin and extra virgin? Is one healthier than the other? What about refined olive oil? Does refined mean better? Is one better suited for cooking?

Suisse: Migros-Margarine Sanissa Olive avec 15 % d’huile d’olive « extra vierge »
Migros lance une margarine contenant 15 pour cent d’huile d’olive « extra vierge ». Avec sa délicate saveur d’olive, Sanissa Olive convient comme délicieuse pâte à tartiner, pour les amuse-bouche, mais aussi pour la cuisine méditerranéenne chaude.
On qualifie d’« extra vierge » l’huile d’olive tirée de la première des trois pressions des olives. Seule une faible force doit être appliquée dans cette première pression. Elle donne une huile vert clair à la saveur fine. Comme son rendement n’est que de 12 pour cent, l’huile d’olive obtenue a une très haute valeur.

New joint Israeli-Palestinian olive oil brand launched
After Peace Olive Oil, new brand of olive oil, Olives of Peace, produced by Palestinian and Israeli peace promoters to be marketed in Japan.
Israeli and Palestinian olive oil manufacturers have launched a new brand – Olives of Peace. It is a new product manufactured jointly by peace advocates from both sides of the divide.
The oil is a blend of Israeli and Palestinian made virgin olive oil, bottled by leading producers on both sides.
The idea came up in a series of seminars for olive growers and oil producers, where specialists from Israel, the Palestinian Authority and Italy gave lectures on new methods of producing quality olive oil.

A farmer south of Alice Springs says he has the good oil on the next horticultural crop for the Territory.
Oak Valley has pressed the Territory’s first batch of olive oil after trialing a 400 kilogram crop.
Farm manager Robert Le Rossignol says while he is starting small, he hopes it will become their main product.
“We’re still trying to look out and see where we’re going,” Mr Le Rossignol said.
“We’d like to look after our own back yard for a start which is possibly Alice Springs, Darwin, have a look around there and if we got a get a bit of demand outside the Territory then we may have to go out.”
