There are a few brands in my pantry that I consider “iconic”. At the top of that list: Bertolli Olive Oil.
Renowned as the world’s leading brand of olive oil, the Bertolli tradition began in 1865 in Italy in the small town of Lucca. There, Francesco and Caterina Bertolli opened a trading shop underneath the family home, where they sold olive oil.
Thank you, Francesco and Caterina, for bringing deliciousness into the homes all around the world for more than 150 years. From full-bodied to mild and sweet, the Bertolli range has an olive oil for all my cooking needs.
Salads, pasta dishes and grilled vegetables come to life with Bertolli Originale or Gentile Extra Virgin Olive Oil. For an all-purpose cooking oil for stews and sautés, I always reach for Bertolli Classico Olive Oil for its mild olive taste. And when I want a light tasting all-purpose oil with a very high smoke point (including deep frying and baking), I can trust Bertolli Delicato Extra Light Tasting Olive Oil.
And now, Bertolli introduces 100% Olive Oil Sprays! Available in Extra Virgin and Extra Light Tasting Olive Oil, these new products offer the versatility of 100% olive oil for both raw and cooked dishes, with the convenience of portion control and just 4 calories per spray. Plus, they are all natural and contain no gas propellants.

Very good products
I love a good virgin, cold pressed olive oil. I was astonished to read how much of the virgin olive oil we buy is actually fake – not a good sign at all. 🙁
Nothing tastes better in baking and cooking than a really good virgin olive oil and Bertolli is just that one oil that does the job. It beats others bar none.
Thanks for the chance for such a wonderful prize just before the holidays♥♥♥
