About ITALIAN EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL, ITALIAN

Kroger Private Selection Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a single-ingredient premium cooking oil sold under The Kroger Co.'s specialty-tier Private Selection brand. The sole ingredient is extra virgin olive oil sourced from Italy, reflecting the Private Selection brand's focus on internationally sourced specialty products. Extra virgin olive oil is the highest quality grade of olive oil, produced by cold mechanical pressing without the use of heat or chemical solvents, and must meet chemical standards for free acidity (below 0.8%), peroxide value, and sensory evaluation under international standards set by the International Olive Council. Italian origin typically implies sourcing from regions such as Tuscany, Sicily, Puglia, or Calabria, each known for distinct olive varietals and flavor profiles.

Nutritionally, olive oil delivers approximately 800 calories per 100 g (a standard figure for pure oils), with 93 g of fat at the dry-weight equivalent. Olive oil fat composition is primarily monounsaturated oleic acid (omega-9), with smaller amounts of linoleic acid (omega-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3). Polyphenols and tocopherols (vitamin E) are naturally present as antioxidants in extra virgin grades. The product is free from all allergens, gluten, dairy, soy, and any additives. It is suitable for vegan, paleo, Mediterranean diet, and keto dietary patterns. It is best used as a finishing oil, in dressings, and for light sautéing at appropriate temperature ranges.
