La Tourangelle Delicate Avocado Oil
At a glance
Summary
La Tourangelle Delicate Avocado Oil scores 72/100. Made with extra-virgin avocado oil for a mild flavor and medium-high smoke point, packaged in a metal tin. Independent testing (Mamavation) measured 1,450 ppb of total phthalates — a low load, well under the per-serving level of concern. No avocado oil is fully phthalate-free, and this one stays toward the cleaner end of the market.

Phthalates (total) 1,450 ppb Low
A low phthalate load. Phthalates are plasticizers that migrate from packaging and processing equipment — no avocado oil on the market is fully free of them. At this level, per-serving exposure sits well below the Prop 65 DEHP maximum allowable dose of 410 µg/day.
Mamavation avocado oil phthalate testing: total phthalates measured at 1,450 ppb (µg/kg) — about 20 µg per tablespoon, versus the Prop 65 DEHP maximum allowable dose of 410 µg/day.
Key ingredients 1
Avocado oilVery Good
High in monounsaturated fat (oleic acid), heat-stable, and minimally processed — an excellent cooking oil on its own. Independent lab testing did detect phthalate plasticizers (see lab results), which migrate from packaging and processing rather than coming from the oil itself.
