Which ones have you tried? I figure most people just try a few and stick with whichever one they find acceptable. I'm far from being an olive oil snob, but I get the Costco extra virgin. It seems OK to me. Since I don't use huge amounts, I get only the one and use it for cooking and for "eating", which, for me, means using it with balsamic vinegar for bread dipping. A favorite olive oil is probably almost as personal as a favorite wine, which is why there are so many. Might you be overthinking this?
