Primal Kitchen, Avocado Oil, Value Size

Ugh don’t waste your money on this. The brand is what I typically buy but they put it in plastic and it expires in 4 mos. That’s ridiculous and if someone over purchases they should just donate it rather asking thrive market customers to buy it as it isn’t what is listed.

Loving this avo oil!

This will be good high temp oil

Receive my bottle on March 20 to find out it is expiring in four months…. Hate that it is plastic. I’d love to return it

Avocado oil is a product rife with questionable producers and products. I solicited questions directly to Primal Kitchen about how their Avocado Oil is processed. Their initial response was "Thank you for contacting Primal Nutrition! We crush and heat the avocado and use only the oil from this “first pass.” After the avocado has been crushed and heated to release the oils, the mixture is passed through a large centrifuge, where the pure oil is separated from the solids of the avocado. Using a centrifuge-extracted process allows us to extract the oil without using chemical solvents like hexane. The refined oil is further processed to further purify it and make it stable for cooking and use in other food products. The avocados are pressed to remove the oil, and then the oil is centrifuge extracted and refined without any solvents." I sent followup question to Primal Kitchen "The heat component of your extraction is of concern to me as cold pressed is considered the gold standard of unrefined fruit oil extraction. Also, I’d like more information on what you describe as ‘further processed". Their response was the "Unfortunately, any information after that will be proprietary." What?! Primal Kitchen claims their Avocado Oil is minimally processed but their extraction process is proprietary?? I don't think so. Based on this I've decided to pass on Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil products.

Great oil with high smoke point so you can use it for everything

glass bottle would have been better

I like the taste of this oil and it was a good price too

good affordable oil

I love this oil and want to support Thrive Market but my recent order arrived in a plastic bottle. Gross. Most plastic is not recyclable regardless of the arrow noting the plastic type. I'll shop elsewhere for glass bottles.
