Vegetable oil is one of the most popular products: we use it to prepare many dishes.

It is used for more than just frying.

We use oil to season salads, make additives for boiled dishes, and use it for baking. Since any housewife uses a lot of oil, the cost issue is always relevant.

What types of oil can be called the most expensive?

Rare olive oil

This type of oil itself cannot be called cheap, especially if we are talking about a high-quality product. Also, manufacturers sometimes experiment, creating unique varieties of olive oil, which increases the cost.

The most expensive product was the one that was sold at auction for more than five thousand euros. We are talking about half a liter of oil. Its uniqueness is that olives from a very ancient plant were used as raw material.

Despite the high price, more than 130 liters of oil were sold.

Argan oil

Many people think that this oil is used only for cosmetic purposes. This is not true. It is just that the cost of edible argan oil is so high that it is unlikely to be in great demand.

The product is sold only in Morocco, where it is manufactured.

A standard bottle of oil costs around $1,500.
