Front-of-package: Made with Olive Oil
Despite what’s promoted on the front of the package, don’t assume olive oil is the main oil. Based on the order that oils are listed in the ingredients of this spread, olive oil is only the fourth most abundant ingredient (by weight). So, you’re probably not getting much olive oil in this spread, and the little you are getting isn’t the most beneficial kind—extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO). If you’re looking for the heart-health benefits of olive oil, consider drizzling your toast with EVOO instead.
