“They can’t fake olives.”

LOL, actually they do fake olives. Olives fallen from the trees and onto the ground are rated as not fit for human consumption, yet these fallen olives normally used for industrial purposes such as lamp oils are often used to adulterate the tree picked olives as a means of cutting costs.

So what to do? Give up on olive oil? Do the healthy spreads, Smart Balance and Oilivio fulfill that need? Or is their olive oil fake, too?
