Olive oil

LYNDHURST, N.J., April 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Filippo Berio, one of the nation's top-selling and longstanding olive oil brands, has established an exclusive partnership with the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation to raise awareness for Alzheimer's disease and contribute crucial funds to support groundbreaking research aimed at finding a cure for Alzheimer's and related dementias. The collaboration is a natural fit, given the growing body of research that indicates properties in olive oil may not only play a pivotal role in cardiovascular health but also provide important benefits to brain health. The partnership aims to increase overall awareness of lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet, that may positively affect brain health, which can help consumers to make healthier, informed choices.

LYNDHURST, N.J., April 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Filippo Berio, one of the nation's top-selling olive oil and pesto sauce companies, is reporting on the 2023/24 harvest, anticipating a challenging year in sourcing high-quality olive oil as production estimates for this harvest period are little higher than 2022/23 crop yields, which were the lowest in 30 years. As of mid-March, the European Commission expected its nine olive-producing members to produce 1.48 million metric tons, up from 1.39 million metric tons the previous year, but still roughly 20% lower than the average of the previous five harvests. Additionally, non-European Union countries, collectively, are expected to realize a decline in production, further exerting pressure on supply and raw material costs. The evolving scenario could result in elevated prices at retailers as consumers seek out trusted, high-quality products that deliver consistent flavor profiles and important health benefits.

Let's take a peek at Europe's garden: everything is so light, bright, and juicy, as reinvigorating as sunshine itself. We have glossy leaves of spinach and chard, crisp green beans, tender grassy asparagus, the sweetest peas--they are all starting to appear now. The fruits of the orchard are small but ripening, especially the cherries, and in the not too distant future, the sweet apricots. Berries are fresh and aromatic--anyone for a springtime trifle or fresh fruit tart?
