EXCELLENT! Cold Pressed Organic Avocado Oil! Yes! 1 GALLON...I weighed it!!!
Reordered Jan 6th 2021: 1 gallon Organic Sulu Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Unrefined Avocado Oil: Arrived in 3 days (January 9th, Saturday)....that's FAST! Seal is intact! No dents to the container! No complaints here! But...Because someone wrote, "There's no way this can be a gallon"...I thought...ok, let's just check that out; I weighed the full container as received/still unopened; came in at 8lb. 6oz....a gallon of avocado oil weighs 128oz or 8 pounds (obviously the container weighed 6 oz)...IT IS 1 GALLON! So, enough of that baseless speculation...if you're going to write something like that...at least make sure it's true! I've ordered this wonderful product several times now...and it NEVER DISAPPOINTS! I buy avocado oil for multiple reasons: 1) avocado oil has a much higher smoke point/burning point compared to Extra Virgin olive oil (which is the only other oil I use). 2) Avocado oil has a very nice buttery-flavor that enhances the taste of food. 3) Avocado oil is rich in oleic acid, which is a very healthy fat to consume. 4) Avocado oil REDUCES (LDL) low density (sticky) cholesterol, but increases (HDL) high density cholesterol which is beneficial to the cardiovascular system. 5) Avocado oil is high in the antioxidant, Lutein (carotenoid), which is beneficial for our eyes and reduces the risk of age-related eye disease such as cataracts and macular degeneration. 6) Avocado oil can help reduce the pain and stiffness of osteoarthritis, as it contains anti-inflammation properties. 7) Avocado oil may help with periodontal health by preventing bone and tissue breakdown in the mouth. 8) Avocado oil is great for skin health and wound healing. (ref: healthline) Extra Virgin Olive Oil's smoke point/burn point is 375 F. degrees....go higher and you're actually destroying EVOO's antioxidant qualities we all buy it for actually turn Olive Oil into an UNHEALTHFUL product if you are cooking at high heat as it becomes an oxidative stressor to your body...aging! Now, looking at Avocado Oil's smoke point/burn point; it tolerates much higher heat of up to 520 F degrees. That means you can use it when broiling and using other high-heat methods WITHOUT burning or destroying the good antioxidant qualities...it maintains it's health providing qualities even when sautéing or braising. If you look to knowledgable chefs and nutritionists, they will affirm that olive oil should be reserved for cold use or lower heat food preparation...but avocado oil is a better choice for higher-heat cooking if you are concerned about aging, anti-oxidants and over-all health!

The best oil for cooking
I recently got into cast iron cooking, so I needed an oil with a high smoke point. I did some research and decided to try avocado oil. The taste is subtle but delicious, goes good with everything I've cooked using it, and it makes the perfect oil to season iron cookware.This is the best price I could find, and it's well worth splurging for it, because a little bit goes a long way, so it will last for a long time.I also have incorporated avocado oil into my home made face & body lotion.I will be buying this again when I run out.

Great Product
This is a great product and costs less per fluid oz than anything we can find locally. The only problem is it’s hard to handle since it is so big, so we pour it into a smaller bottle for regular use.

Great value!
Great value for the price! I use it just about every day and am very pleased with it! A lot of people use olive oil and don't realize that it has a relatively low scorch point. Avocado oil's scorch point is much higher.

Excellent quality and flavor
We switched to avocado oil after learning how toxic veggie oil is. This was the only one we found that was cold pressed. It works gear for high temp cooking, frying, baking.... doesn’t have a flavor at all. I wish it came in a glass bottle. Will buy again.

Delicious, healthy oil at a bargain price!
The price is fantastic for the quality and amount you get! Far better than the cost of the smaller bottles in stores, plus organic avocado oil isn't easy to find. Two caveats: order in the cooler months and pour into glass bottles to store in the refrigerator. Because the bottle is plastic, I didn't trust it to contain the oil long-term. I also recommend using dark glass bottles so even the small amount of light from opening the fridge doesn't cause deterioration.I use this oil for most of my sauteeing and baking now and love the neutral flavor.When purchasing this again, I plan to divide it with friends because there is a LOT of this oil for just one family!If you're following a keto diet plan as we do, I highly recommend this oil
