When it comes to what we eat, more of us are asking the right questions: Where did this come from? How was it made? Is this good for me? Those same questions are being asked about one staple in our kitchens that’s found its way into beauty routines and in some bedrooms— extra virgin olive oil. Curiosity is fueling a boom in this cooking oil industry, with the market projected to more than double to $2.2 billion by 2031. But with so many options, how do you know what’s actually worth drizzling on or that salad?
In this episode of Brains Byte Back, we pick the mind of Arsen Khachaturyants— he’s an NYU math graduate turned CEO of Arsenio, an organic wine and olive oil company in Tuscany. Arsen blends science with tradition while redefining what thoughtful agriculture can look like in olive oil production.
We explore how it’s made, the impacts global warming has had on the industry, what truly makes it organic, and how to pick the best bottle from the sea of options. We also discuss whether or not a shot is worth putting in your Starbucks coffee if you haven’t tried it already.
If you believe knowing what’s on your plate starts long before it hits your kitchen, join us.Find out more about Arsen Khachaturyants here.
