The Best Trader Joe's Olive Oil You Can Buy

When it comes to picking out good olive oil, the choices can be somewhat daunting. Just about every grocery store has a wide variety of choices, all at different price points, and that's before one even considers hitting up a specialty shop. Even olive oil experts will agree though, that it's really not necessary to spend an arm and a leg for a decent olive oil, and you can find some seriously great ones on the shelf of your local Trader Joe's. 

The grocer has a reputation for having quality name brand products — minus the actual name brand — at unbeatable prices, and their olive oil offerings are no different. The only question now is, which is the best olive oil on the shelf at Trader Joe's?

You'll find a variety of olive oils to choose from at Trader Joe's, and while we'd like to say that you can't go wrong with any of them, some are just going to give you a little more bang for your buck. CNBC reported that ConsumerLabs analyzed 10 different olive oils and named Trader Joe's premium, cold pressed extra virgin olive oil as one of their top three picks. At around $7.49, it came in at a lower price point and better quality than pricier name brands such as Newman's Own and Colavita. Score!

If you happen to find that the shelf at your Trader Joe's has been picked clean of this olive oil, you might consider their Greek Kalamata extra virgin olive oil. The editors of Bon Appétit are big fans of the stuff, and found it to be a great everyday olive oil to keep on hand. Lifehacker is also a fan of this Greek olive oil calling it "delicious" and commending its low price point of around $9 a bottle.

Because both of these olive oils are of good quality and won't break the bank, you can use them in everything from salad dressings to simply drizzling over fresh bread without the guilt that might come with a pricier olive oil.
