I recienctly read something that I didn't know and wanted to share .... All olives oils are not created equal.... U.S olive oil companies are held to a higher standard In fact a recient study was done and only 40% of international olive oils actually met the standards for extra virgin... I also read that it is best to buy bottles of a dark color due to that sun light adds acidity to the oil... Just food for thought ....
It is because of the Mafia and ndgrangheta in Sicily and Calabria. It is a way of life there. There are some OK me Italian co ops fighting this trend
