<strong style="text-align: center;">We are sure that most of you know Loblaws supermarket chain, but for those that don't, this supermarket chain was established in 1919 in Toronto where within a decade, the Loblaw chain has grown to over 70 stores in Ontario alone. Around 1928 they expanded to New York State, Pennsylvania and Chicago and since then they haven't stop growing. It's a great supermarket where you can find all you need!!!! . In their new beautiful location located at Londsdale Ave., we can say that our favourite place is "the wall of cheese" a 12 feet tall wall full of over 300 varieties of cheese from around the world!!! That's heaven for us... A good piece of cheese over a nice piece of bread with our Cazorliva EVOO and few Roldan Olives!! Yummy, it is the perfect appetizer!!</strong><br /><br /><br /></div>

<strong>Quince is a café, boutique shop and cooking school that has been supporting our products since we started in 2010, but now they're expanding our presence in their store with our 2 types of Spanish Olives, Roldan Olives: Aloreña D.O.P. and our Gordal stuffed with a pickle. They've been in this location since 2005. Go and enjoy their great coffee, fresh artisan breads, such as their baguette made with olive oil, handcrafted pastries or lunch, or pick up some dinner to go. They organize cooking classes for a minimum of 12 people, so it's a great option to experience a culinary adventure with family and friends. </strong></div>

<span class="mc-toc-title"><strong>March has arrived and it is a fun month for families and especially for kids, because it´s the month of Easter. So dust off your basket and get ready for the egg hunting. :) The date for Easter this year is good Friday March 29th, while Easter monday happens to be on April fools day. Did you know that Easter eggs symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus?

<b>The Tin Roof sources local produce and dry products whenever Bath can offer a good price for customers. She points out that though most people would prefer to shop locally and organic, for some families it’s simply not affordable 100% of the time. The Tin Roof’s stock represents a well-balanced variety favouring local and healthful products alongside more conventional items at a cost comparable to most grocery stores. The market also sells housemade sausages and frozen entrées, rotisserie chicken from Cowichan Bay, thin crust pizza by the slice (including a gluten-free option), and custom paninis. They are licensed, offering a small selection of beer and wine for customers stopping by for a quick bite. A small self-serve cheese and olive section was created for picnickers looking to assemble a takeout lunch en route to Beacon Hill or Dallas Road beaches</b></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Hi Everyone,</b><br /><br /><b>Spain's favorite olives have arrived in Vancouver!!!</b><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 12px;"><img _cke_saved_src="https://d2q0qd5iz04n9u.cloudfront.net/_ssl/proxy.php/http/gallery.mailchimp.com/05c2649bd08feaf83626082b3/images/Alorena.jpg" align="none" height="164" src="https://d2q0qd5iz04n9u.cloudfront.net/_ssl/proxy.php/http/gallery.mailchimp.com/05c2649bd08feaf83626082b3/images/Alorena.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; height: 164px; line-height: 12px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; text-decoration: none; width: 300px;" width="300" /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /><b style="font-size: 12px;">Roldan Olives are a Spanish favorite, especially the Aloreña variety shown above, which is considered to be the "Pata Negra" (the best of the best) of olives because of the taste and nutritional benefits. We are very excited to be the first and only suppliers of the Aloreña olive with the denomination of origin of Malaga to Canada. </b><strong>This 100% natural olive is considered the best of the olives in Spain. It’s the only olive with D.O.P. from more than 260 different varieties to choose from in Spain.</strong><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"> </span><b><span style="font-size: 12px;"><strong>Its size, thick texture and ease of shedding the olive pit, allows the seasoning to penetrate, making it a unique olive that is highly appreciated by professional tasting palettes. To help offset their bitter taste, these olives are brine-cured by natural methods. The traditional and natural seasoning is composed of garlic and thyme. Free of cholesterol and trans fats. An amazing delight!!</strong></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<br /><strong>We are also supplying another olive called Gordal shown above, which is one of the largest varieties from Spain and this is a great and fancy way to eat them, with a little pickle stuffed inside. The contrast of flavours is what makes this olive interesting. These olives are brine-cured and don’t have any extra seasoning. They’re free of cholesterol. Great for any occasion!!<br /><br /><br />We have 9 new locations where you can find our products in Vancouver, Calgary and on Vancouver Island.

I was asked to review this olive oil, and frankly, I’m not much of a connoisseur, but my curiosity was peaked because I was in a store last week and was offered RICE oil because “olive oil isn’t good for cooking with, it has a low smoking point”. Huh? I thought olive oil was just better than anything else, because Rachel Ray uses it. Apparently I need to be schooled in my olive oil use. This is what I found out from the nice, local company, <a href="http://olivesandthings.com/OLIVESANDTHINGS/Home.html" style="color: #222222; text-decoration: underline;">Olives and Things</a>.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Ahem, in my most professor-like tone, here’s the highlights from their collective knowledge of all things EVOO:</div><ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><li style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: url(http://strawberriesareglutenfree.com/wp-content/themes/prose/images/post-list.png); background-origin: initial; background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; margin-bottom: 3px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 3px; padding-left: 16px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">The majority of EVOOs are mixed and blended with other varieties of olives. The problem with this, is that you can’t even taste the olives in those oils, you taste just oil. Our oil comes from just 1 kind of olive, the <strong>Picual variety</strong>.</li>
<li style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: url(http://strawberriesareglutenfree.com/wp-content/themes/prose/images/post-list.png); background-origin: initial; background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; margin-bottom: 3px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 3px; padding-left: 16px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Our variety, Picual- is the healthy olive. It’s the variety that contains the <strong>highest % of antioxidants</strong> and oleic acids, it’s almost 80%, comparing to other varieties like Manzanilla, that contains around 30%.</li>
<li style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: url(http://strawberriesareglutenfree.com/wp-content/themes/prose/images/post-list.png); background-origin: initial; background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; margin-bottom: 3px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 3px; padding-left: 16px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Because of the characteristics of this variety, it has the highest smoking point. You can <strong>cook with it</strong> up to 470ºF, you can even <strong>deep fry with our EVOO</strong> reusing it up to 4 times.</li>
<li style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: url(http://strawberriesareglutenfree.com/wp-content/themes/prose/images/post-list.png); background-origin: initial; background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; margin-bottom: 3px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 3px; padding-left: 16px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">The Picual olive is a variety with a longer shelf life. Keeping the bottle propertly closed and away from direct sun and heat, it stays better for longer. Some other oils get rancid very quick! <strong><– </strong><em>THAT would explain some nasty smelling stuff coming from the pretty glass bottles by my stovetop.</em></li>

It fared well, with a lovely colour, aroma and flavour. It was unanimously chosen as superior to a popular brand, but its slightly sharp note on the finish made it come second to a more expensive competitor from Italy (that the clerk made sure to remind me would not do well under heat and not to use for cooking).

News to me, apparently Spain is the world’s largest producer and exporter of olive oil, with Italy and Greece second and third.
