Probably you got fake one.
Because olive and avocado oil are expensive there are a lot of fake oil blending are happening.
Avocado oil is neutral flavor and no smell.
I recommended earlier to get it from Costco they have been passing independent quality reviews.

Avocado, olive and coconut oil all have about the same number of calories - around 120 per tablespoon.

Um…the amount of calories has nothing to do with what makes an oil heathy or not

Coconut oil appears to have a lot of saturated fat content. I am surprised it is touted as super healthy. After recent research, I opt for oils with more monosaturated fat content (e.g. Olive, Avocado).

Saturated fats are not considered an healthy in the “low carb” diet community.
Doctors in this community advice you not to use highly refined seed oils because they are inflammatory to the body.
If interested you can listen to Dr Berry and Dr Berg on YouTube.

What do people use for things like making brownies or pancakes? I use olive or avocado for almost everything but keep canola on hand for sweet baking. Is there anything better?

Butter. Making brownies or pancakes with oil is blasphemy
