What You Should Know

La Tourangelle Avocado Oil is presented as a premium, pantry-staple cooking oil you’d find in the oils & vinegars or specialty foods aisle, shelved beside extra-virgin olive oils, grapeseed oil, and other culinary oils. The 16.9 fl oz bottle—often a dark-tinted glass or PET container with a pour spout—reads as a chef-friendly product aimed at home cooks who want a higher-end alternative to vegetable oil. Shoppers reach for it on grocery trips focused on weekend brunches, meal-prep sessions, or when assembling ingredients for a roast or salad. The label highlights culinary quality with callouts like “Extra Virgin” and a simple ingredient list (Refined Avocado Oil, Extra Virgin Avocado Oil); there’s no child-targeted branding and no prominent organic seal shown on the ingredient list provided. Marketing leans into an artisanal, health-oriented vibe—La Tourangelle is positioned toward food-interested adults who value flavor and versatility, from health-minded millennials to home chefs. In plain processing terms, this is an extracted and refined edible oil blended with a small fraction of unrefined extra-virgin avocado oil to balance neutral flavor and higher smoke point. Sensory notes: light, smooth mouthfeel with a mild, buttery-green avocado aroma and a pale green-gold color; it pours easily and is used as a finishing drizzle, salad dressing base, or for high-heat sautéing and roasting. The typical ritual is practical and culinary — measuring a tablespoon for dressings, pouring into a hot pan for searing, or keeping a bottle by the stovetop for everyday cooking. Nutrition labeling lists about 130 calories per serving and no sugars or sodium reported.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

Processed Ingredients

Why this score?

This product is a processed culinary ingredient: mechanically/chemically extracted and refined edible oil (with some extra-virgin oil blended in), so it fits NOVA group 2 rather than being an ultra-processed formulation.
