Question 1

Is it able to catch fire?

Accepted Answer

Bit of science.  Of course it will if heated beyond its flash point.  Olive oil has a flash point of 437 degrees Fahrenheit. That means if you could heat olive oil to 437 degrees F, (225 degrees celsius).  it would give off a vapour that could ignite if a lit match passed through it.  Now the Jamie Oliver bit.  Olive Oil is not meant to be used for cooking beyond the point where it starts smoking, but that's going some.  Use rapeseed oil for high temp frying.  I always cook with it, fried eggs, meat, etc.

Question 2

Which harvest season is the oil you are currently selling?

Accepted Answer

Hi, Mikel, 
I don't know the answer, I'm afraid; you will need to address your question to the producers of Elea Creta Olive Oil. All the best!

Question 3

There's a sharp dent on the seem.according to the foods agency this can cause botulism which is deadly.anyone has any research how this is with olive?

Accepted Answer

Dear Mr Matthew,
First of all, we would like to thank you for your order, and we are really sorry for the inconvenience regarding this issue. Even though we are generally pleased with the fulfilment services provided by Amazon and their associates, isolated incidents occur.

But let us clarify something. There is absolutely no way that the foods agency reported that dents on tin cans could cause botulism. We refer to the material used by the food industry for food packaging. This metal is specially produced for food products under the highest safety protocol. It has been used in various packaging for years, without a single issue. We can guarantee that. Elea Creta's products are ISO 22000, IFS and HACCP certified.
When there was no leaking, which meant that no air or light had affected its quality, the olive oil is absolutely safe for you to consume it. 
Sometimes carriers damage the tin can. For these isolated cases, we have chosen the strongest material to handle the hits during transit.

This is an awarded Greek EVOO, of amazing taste and high nutritional value.

We are at your disposal for every matter.
Kind regards
Greek Tastes 4 All Ltd.

Question 4

Is the acidity of this olive oil was modified with chemical

Accepted Answer

Dear Mrs Suzan,
Firstly we would like to thank you for your interest in our Greek products and your request,

No, we don't use chemical additives at any stage. The low acidity of our EVOO is the result of the right harvesting tactics, of excellent and high-quality olives, and the olive oil extraction is being performed by using the cold pressing method of the fruit and only with traditional mechanical methods, keeping thus all-natural ingredients and aromas.

This is the way to achieve the low acidity, the balanced flavour, distinctive aroma, and the high nutritional value of our awarded Greek EVOO.

we are at your disposal for every matter,
Kind regards
