Knowledge & Additional Information :
Can we consume olive oil past the Best Before date?
- The "best before" date on organic olive oil is a general guideline and not a strict expiration date.
- If stored properly, organic olive oil can retain its freshness and quality for several years after the best before date.
- The strong flavour of organic extra virgin olive oil can help mask any subtle changes in taste or quality that may occur over time.
- Organic olive oil is rich in antioxidants and healthy monounsaturated fats, making it a nutritious addition to the diet even after the best before date.
- As long as the oil has not been exposed to heat, light, or air, it is likely to remain safe for consumption even after the best before date.
- The acidity level of organic olive oil is low, which reduces the risk of spoilage and extends the oil's shelf life.
- Organic olive oil is made from pure, untreated olives, making it less likely to contain harmful chemicals or contaminants.
- The organic production process is subject to strict regulations, ensuring the oil meets high quality standards.
- Unlike conventional olive oil, organic oil is not treated with chemicals or other artificial preservatives, which can extend its shelf life.
- Organic olive oil is stored in dark, airtight containers to prevent oxidation and preserve freshness.
