Could someone please explain to me the difference between pure olive oil,
virgin olive oil and EXTRA virgin olive oil?? I know price wise they go up
in price but what is difference nutritionally or do they just 'taste'
better, the higher they go up the price scale? I want to buy some but

don't
know which 'version' to get. I do know the cooking shows on Foodnetwork

seem
to always use the 'extra' virgin one. Thanks

In our house XV is the way we go but then we never fry foods. If need an oil
for frying, XV olive oil is not your best choice.
