I buy mine in health food stores, mostly. Often they are organic or have won some sort of olive oil competition. :<) Haven't had any dead animals or dead fish in our household for 39 years now!Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-29279349752010190662010-08-15T10:54:51.278-04:002010-08-15T10:54:51.278-04:00I've always bought bottles of the more obscure...<i>I've always bought bottles of the more obscure labels that sounded high quality.</i><br /><br />Me, too!

It was the quickest and easiest way to fill our tummies after a long day at work, when neither of us would want to stand in the kitchen for a long time - and it is healthy for the garlic and if you use good quality olive oil :-)Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-14520195673522704702010-08-14T22:42:44.065-04:002010-08-14T22:42:44.065-04:00look at the garlic! looks like you grow garlic in...look at the garlic! looks like you grow garlic in your farm.
