What Sets Costco Extra Virgin Olive Oil Apart From Other Brands

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) tends to be more expensive than other varieties, but high quality often comes with a high price. Tracking down good EVOO doesn't require a trip to Italy, and as luck would have it, a TikTok video posted by @FlavCity extols the virtues of this gem sold at Costco

Holding a bottle of Kirkland Signature 100% Italian extra virgin olive  oil, @FlavCity calls the Costco-brand product “one of the cleanest on  the market.” He dotes on its size and price ($14.49 for two liters),  which is both less expensive and significantly higher in volume than  other good-quality olive oils

And in 2014, Nadia Antonelli Franceschini, owner of Italian olive oil  company Cuore Verde, told The New York Times that some olive oils may  claim to be Italian when, in reality, they have no ties to Italy. But as  @FlavCity pointed out on TikTok, Kirkland Signature’s olive oil has a  certification from Bureau Veritas and has been confirmed to be “100%  Italian,” per OliveOil.com
