The Best Olive Oils Will Always Come In This Type Of Bottle - The Takeout 04/20/2026

"The best olive oils come in these bottle"

"However, Martin said, "Plastic, whether clear or dark, is more permeable to oxygen and is never ideal, although dark or opaque plastic is certainly better than clear plastic." Then, there's also the problem of plastic polluting food. "Additionally, BPA is known to leach into olive oil, and it can sometimes be difficult to verify that the manufacturer is using a BPA-free plastic," Martin said. Olive oil packaged in glass bottles or food-safe lacquer-coated metal containers doesn't have these same issues, since they protect against oxidation better and don't contain BPA."

All that being said, Martin did note that a plastic bottle isn't an immediate write-off for him. " ...

“Eat at a local restaurant tonight. Get the cream sauce. Have a cold pint at 4 o’clock in a mostly empty bar. Go somewhere you’ve never been. Listen to someone you think may have nothing in common with you. Order the steak rare. Eat an oyster. Have a negroni. Have two. Be open to a world where you may not understand or agree with the person next to you, but have a drink with them anyways. Eat slowly. Tip your server. Check in on your friends. Check in on yourself. Enjoy the ride." –Anthony Bourdain.
