Hi Tim,
YOU are CORRECT. Monte Pollino is the BEST olive oil ...unfortunately Trader Joe’s has discontinued it ... and I am at a loss. Monte Pollino comes from the are of Sicily where my mother spent most of her childhood.

haha… yeah we should get a writing campaign going. Last I heard from a TJ employee was that it was only seasonal and was out for the rest of the year and that it would be back next year for several months.
I know that the first time I had it was two years ago and couldn’t find it till earlier this past year… so it may be back early next year… if so we’ll have to stock up!

Dear Tim,
I picked up recently a square box of olive oil packed in plastic cryovac from australia, called red island. I love the flavor of this oil. Also a company on the internet worth checking out, is ariston specialties. I think ariston olive oils are really super. Also check out Dellalo website, they have the nearest possible Italian products around. And for the best in certified Roma Tomatoes with the D.O.P. check out Lavalle Tomatoes and Tomato Pastes! Other than that , all things Italian are great!

hello, i’m a trader joe’s junkie. my name is J.brujo garza but you can call me brujo. i enjoy plenty of products from trader joe’s, i usually leave with nearl $100usd of products biweekly! i love their coffee’s, chiefly their ethiopian medium dark roast organic fair trade shade grow and such, whose prices have been on an upwards ride! this is most likely because of the situations in that country? i recently tried the trader joe’s first lady reserve unfiltered olive oil, and so far my family enjoys it, not common for my 12 year old daughter, but ok with my six year old son! i try getting in as much healthy like products into the dinner table as possible, as does my wife. we had a previous oil from Trader Joe’s, that we loved also, but its name escapes me at the moment! and like some products it seemed to have disappeared! i hope the do bring it back soon! i like to make a dip with them using fresh herbs from our garden, and sometimes dry ones, and this is an excellent way to get the children involved, they love making their own creations, and actually eating them! well as i wander in and out of subjects, ill end with this, trader joes is a bit pricey, but i think in the end its worth it!

Yeah… I can’t wait till they get a Trader Joes in Nashville. Also, I don’t think it is as pricey as most other natural and whole food stores. I think their prices are great. Thanks for the tips!

I spotted Monte Pollino Olive Oil at World Market on Camelback Rd and 18th St in Phoenix, AZ($7)
I just stopped by and bought two bottles. Although it is in a different bottle (rectangular) with a different label and is marked Extra Virgin Olive Oil, I am sure it is the same product. As you know, Trader Joe’s is no longer carrying it (also $7).
