EVOO stands for extra virgin olive oil. It is a type of olive oil that is made from pure, cold-pressed olives. EVOO has a higher acidity than other types of olive oil, but it also has a higher flavor and nutrition content. EVOO is considered to be the healthiest type of olive oil because it contains the most antioxidants, which are believed to protect against diseases such as cancer and heart disease.
EVOO is also the least processed type of olive oil, meaning that it retains more of its natural nutrients.
