If you care about the smoke point (i.e. you're heating to any significant degree), then to don't want extra virgin. Extra virgin is more for dressings, finishing, etc. If you're cooking with it, you want "pure".
- halbritt 7y agoUnfortunately, with the demand for "EVOO" it's difficult to get pure olive oil consistently. When it is available, it's generally no cheaper than extra virgin.

Also Target and Walmart carry them, them being evoo, extra light tasting, and regular. I don't know where you live, bit I've lived in many countries and on remote islands and olive oil is ubiquitous.
