Does the oil contain any additives or preservatives?
No. Bertolli Extra Virgin is made purely from cold-pressed olives with no artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives, supporting a clean ingredient list.
What is the difference between extra virgin olive oil and regular olive oil?
Extra virgin olive oil is cold-pressed from the first pressing of olives, with an acidity of 0.3% or less and no chemical refining. This preserves more flavor, aroma, and antioxidants than refined or light olive oils, which is why Bertolli Extra Virgin is preferred for dressings, drizzling, and finishing.
