I'm not saying it's true with that oil at all, but it's an example of what is being talked about.

I went to their website and they talk a good game. It was harvested and "processed" within 48 hours to ensure freshness for our customers'. It has a certificate in each box to show when it was packed. Never said anything about when it was harvested. It could have been processed in 48 hours of harvest, but sat in a tank for 3 years and that's why it's offered at almost half off.

Or not. Maybe it's legitimate. Those are 16.9 oz. bottles so that comes out at $9.96 a bottle, plus a free container for storing and pouring. I'd been happier if they'd come in darker bottles instead. I'd want to know the harvest date on it before I bought it.

If it's legitimate, that's a good deal.

Ive seen stories of people not getting taste, smell or both back period. Don't know if that's fake news or not, but that scares the crap outta me brother.

Now that I've spoken selfishly, I mean no disrespect to anyone that has lost anything or anyone due to this virus. I have.

My cousin and his wife had it over the summer. As of November he couldn’t smell and his wife couldn’t taste.

That must be a Facebook only deal or it's an old ad. I was gonna order it. I've spent over an hour checking this out just out of curiosity. Since you were the one that posted it I really wanted it to a good find. Amazon reviews and other sites as well have nothing but praise. My intuition days it's not to be trusted because too many flags, but I'm wrong sometimes/often. Best I can find us on the website for $24 for 1 bottle. I'm not that curious. I paid $35 for the same size bottle of some that I have 100% confidence in.

Okay, I'm pissed now.

After all that, I got an email from Fratelli Carli. That same ad Hman posted. "Exclusive Offer". I should have freaking known better. I signed up. Entered all my info, except cc # which wasn't required at that point. I'm now a member of Fratelli Carli and "Ready to shop".

Order the "deal" and it's $39.80+ $9.99 shipping.

I'm done. They suck and can kiss my butt.

Lol, dude! Stuff like this aggravates the doodoo outta me.

I went back to send them an email aaaaannd, there's the ad with a way to order it! Sooooo I ordered it. Gave all my info, again, this time my cc. Get to the PAY or CANCEL buttons, hit PAY....nothing. Press PAY again....nothing. I delete errthang and start over....same thing.

I gave up. If I get charged 4 times for this mess, I'm on murder mission.

It didn't go through for whatever reason, the cancel button didn't work either and some other weird things were going on. Crap website. Crap company. Prolly crap olive oil. I was actually excited to try it. It wasn't meant to be!

I agree That's life changing stuff. I've got a recipe to make a copycat version that's said to be "as good if not better, but definitely hotter". But good lowered it's got like 25 ingredients and it's a project.
