At a glance
Summary
Primal Kitchen Pure Avocado Oil scores 67/100. Centrifuge-extracted single-ingredient avocado oil (a gentler, largely unrefined process) with Whole30 and Keto certifications. Independent testing (Mamavation) measured 2,774 ppb of total phthalates — a moderate load, above the cleaner options but under the per-serving level of concern. Packaging-derived plasticizer contamination affects the whole category.
Contaminants 1
Source: Mamavation
Phthalates (total) 2,774 ppb Moderate
A moderate phthalate load — higher than the cleanest avocado oils but still below the Prop 65 DEHP maximum allowable dose of 410 µg/day per serving. Phthalates are plasticizers that migrate from packaging and processing; some contamination is unavoidable across the category.
Mamavation avocado oil phthalate testing: total phthalates measured at 2,774 ppb (µg/kg) — about 39 µg per tablespoon, versus the Prop 65 DEHP maximum allowable dose of 410 µg/day.

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.
