The Bite
Cash on in with tasty, golden olive oil. Its "good" fats make it ideal for cooking, and with organic versions, prospects for a healthier planet are golden.

The Benefits
A health goldmine. Olive oil's Omega-3 and Omega-9 fatty acids are known for their skin-beautifying benefits - and 2 tbsp of olive oil each day may reduce the risk of heart disease. Safety to bank on. Pesticides are fat-soluble and thus concentrate in the oil portion of plants (and that includes olives). Choose organic to decrease exposure risks. It's eco and economical. A Greek study found that organic olive groves cause fewer CO2 emissions than conventional ones and that both methods can be economically viable for farmers.
