Maybe I’d better edit that other post – I just looked at my bottle again, and it doesn’t say organic. I just assumed it was because it feels so good to my body! Sorry :(
call the company and ask. people are more than willing to answer questions!
Well, I made a hash of thing, haha. Not all of their oil is organic and I didn’t know if I should just keep the order or cancel. But it all tastes great, yes! Actually I don’t know if they have organic oil right now at their site; I guess I could cancel and buy it elsewhere, but I don’t think I can afford my favorite organic oils. So I was wondering if their non-organic oil was full of chemicals. I made a mess of the questions, folks, sorry. Now I’m embarrassed! OOXX
Bariani is my favorite, too. I always thought it was organic. I’ve emailed the company to find out if it is. I’ll post the answer here.
Thank you, greenie! I had emailed earlier but maybe they’re not open. I know they do sometimes bottle organic at times but I didn’t think the rest of the oil was.
Alix, They’re a small small company and it can take a while for them to respond to VM or email. I love their oil. I suspect it’s organic but they haven’t gone to the trouble of having it certified. I’ll let you know what I find out.
This is the reply from Bariani:
Our olive oil is “registered” organic with the State of California, which is the last step before being “certified” by a third party company. We can state “organic” on the bottle only when we get the certification.
Yay! Thanks for the info, greenie! I knew it was too good to be full of pesticides – thanks for doing the homework to find out for sure :)
Thank you, greenie!!! They never answered me, even with a big order, so thank you many times!
I was really happy to hear that too, and not surprised at all.
