I went to buy italian bread at the bakery and they had olive oil there. I bought two bottles.

[Lliam]

I have a friend who has hundred year old olive trees and presses his own. It's absolutely delicious.

I order hot coco powder from Equal Exchange when I need it. I often buy olive oil from them at the same time. It i sourced from Palestine, NOT Israel. It is wonderful olive oil and the proceeds go to supporting the remaining Palestinian farmers.

It's hard to know which brands of olive oil in regular grocery stores is pure olive oil.

[Staximus]

You're a dumbass, Liam. Israel doesn't make much olive oil. Most of the world's olives and olive oil comes from Spain, Italy, Turkey, Greece, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, and Egypt.

[Lliam]

@Staximus. Palestine is renown for it's olives and olive oil, dumb ass. It has been for thousands of years.
Of course, Zionist colonizers have bulldozed ancient olive groves and stolen most of the land from Palestinians because Israelis are evil. I refuse to buy anything that comes from the illegitimate entity called Israel, but I do what I can to support Christian, Jewish and Muslim Palestinians.

[Staximus]

Yeah that's great , but you're making a statement as if some significant portion of the world olive oil comes from Israel and you have to make some kind of effort to avoid it, when in fact almost no olive oil contains any from Israel in the first place. Every post doesn't have to be your anti Israel soapbox you mongoloid antisemite

[Lliam]

@Staximus. I made no such statement, you mindless idiot.
You can keep parroting the meaningless word "antisemite" all day. When a Zionist says it, I take it as a compliment. People like you even call anti-Zionist Jews antisemites.

[Hannajenky]

That’s awesome. Don’t listen to the genocide supporters

[Hannajenky]

@Staximus the Israeli government and Netanyahu and the IDF are genocidal trash.

That is not antisemitic. You are the only antisemite in this chat

[Lliam]

@Hannajenky. He doesn't know the definition of Semite.

[Staximus]

@Hannajenky that's what happens when the Palestinians elect coward terrorists to rule them, who kill civilians and then use their own people as human shields, retard.

[Hannajenky]

@Staximus you seem to have micropenis vibes. Good luck to you

[Staximus]

@Hannajenky you have libtard scum bag vibes. You support a terrorist organization that uses the same people they claim to protect as human shields.

[Hannajenky]

@Staximus at least I don’t have a micropenis I guess…. You are very creepy and weird

[Staximus]

@Hannajenky so you are saying you have a macropenis

[Hannajenky]

I am saying you are creepy

[Staximus]

@Hannajenky you don't even know me. At least I don't support terrorist organizations in the name of libtard virtue signaling

[Lliam]

@Staximus. Nobody wants to know anyone as dumb as you.
You're the one who supports the real terrorists.

[Hannajenky]

And with the micropenis they all laugh at him

[Daniela1982]

Do you remember how you felt when you saw the news about the horrific attacks against Israel on October 7, 2023?

The 3,000 rockets fired…

The Jihadist paragliders breaching the Israeli border to attack innocent civilians…

It still makes me sick to think about what these innocent people went through, especially the women and children.

This was radical Jihad terrorism—plain and simple. You would think that this would be something we could all agree is evil, no matter our political party.

But since that day, the pro-Hamas Left has instead chosen to ramp up its anti-Israel hatred.

They’ve blockaded our bridges and roads to push their dangerous agenda. They’ve spread misinformation about Israel online and throughout our society. And these radical agitators have infiltrated university campuses across America to mislead students and paint our closest ally as evil.

It’s revolting.

[Lliam]

@Daniela1982. Why no sympathy for the 76 years of horrific attacks against innocent, peaceful Palestinians by Zionist colonists? Israelis call that self defense, but what it has always been is theft and murder.
Israel deliberately targets women, children, journalists, medical workers, emergency personnel, UN aid workers. But Palestinians who resist are the terrorists? Who is the existential threat?

Were the American revolutionaries who sought independence terrorists.

We members of the French resistance during WWII terrorists?

[HalalCabello]

Good on you Lliam ❤️🇵🇸🇵🇸

[LiamJHayden]

No trouble, but the price has just about doubled since April

[exitseven]

so has the price of everything else.

[FreyaRed]

We have plenty olive oil but it costs around 10 USD per liter what is price for 4-5 liter of canola or sunflower oil. I prefer butter or clarified butter anyway that is even more expensive than olive oil.

[CrazyGirl2]

You really should not eat canola oil. Its original use was as an industrial lubricant, especially on ships as it sticks to wet metal. So US purchase millions of gallons of it during World War II, due to its excellent hydrophobic qualities, the oil was used primarily on ships to prevent rusting of critical nautical infrastructure. in fact, the name canola comes from: Canadian Oil, Low Acid. which indicates the low levels of erucic acid in this variety of rapeseed oil, making it only slightly more suitable for human consumption. However, all seed oils are endocrine disruptors, which lower testosterone in males. (This includes olive oil.)

You may find it in the Spinach aisle where Popeye gets his Olive Oyl. 🤣😂

[exitseven]

I see what you just did.

[DizzyDesii]

Interesting because i was looking online this morning for a recommended brand and came across this one lol

[Laciejordan]

I've tried it, don't like it! I stick with vegetable oil. I know this has nothing to do with your question but I just had to put my two cents in. 😜

[exitseven]

always appreciated.

[menina]

I didn't. Maybe it's a problem in some parts of the United States. Olive oil is even more expensive where I live but it's part of the traditional cuisine. So many people still buy it.

[exitseven]

everything is expensive. I went to an Italian food store today. I bought some bread and I spotted olive oil as I was walking around so I grabbed two bottles/

[menina]

Yes, unfortunately that's a problem around the world. Not just in the US.
I'm glad you found it.

[StudyingAuthor]

Nope... I just keep a secret stash and buy more when necessary... Plus I usually use vegetable oil.

[exitseven]

do you know how to cook?

[StudyingAuthor]

Yes sir... I'm actually pretty good.

[Apple1996]

I buy it at sams club. Never had any issues finding it there but last time it was a bit more pricey than normal

[andreasderjuengere]

Yepp - because of the Ukrainian war, the oil prices went up.
Putin's fault :P

[DishLady]

No. I go to my Greek spot and pick up a giant can.

[Account]

Here in Greece they sell that shit everywhere although it has gotten way more expensive.

[dustybiker2]

Do you have a whole foods? Amazon says they are stocked in my local stores

[Kayla45]

Seems to be fine in Canada, your country might have a shortage.

[NathanDavis]

there's plenty of it at Costco...

[ProbablyClueless]

Nope. I'm not having any difficulty getting olive oil at all.

[andreasderjuengere]

Now... WHICH party will be blamed for this global crisis? :D

[DrPepper12]

Plenty here in NY. Gotta keep the mafia in Brooklyn happy!

[msc545]

I have an olive tree and an olive press.

[exitseven]

really? everyone needs a hobby I guess.

[msc545]

Yeah I kind of really like the Olive tree and the olive oil I get from the olives that I grow is terrific.

[TheRealPepperPotts]

@msc545 That is so cool. I love that! :D

[msc545]

@TheRealPepperPotts Thanks!

[llorando]

No, still available at my local grocery store.

[Iron_Man]

Isn’t that to get the earwax out of your ears?

[Wiredone]

We haven't needed it in a while so I haven't looked for it

[OlderAndWiser]

No problem with olive oil in Florida.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

I see plenty at my local stores but forget about buying it. A bottle cost $13 Dollars.

[RedInnocent69]

I’ve still got a stockpile. Over half a gallon.

[ChicoFromThe305]

Go to Hispanic markets, you'll find olive oil lol

[Cheerfull009]

We have plenty in our stores in Pakistan,

[Evsisa]

Nope.
