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?

“So what to do? Give up on olive oil?”

UC Davis maintains a grove of olive trees, produces products from their olives, and maintains and olive industry research center. This research center has been used as a part of the quality assurance process for maintaining quality standards and reputation for California olive products such as the olive oils. Consequently, such quality controlled olive oils produced in California are tested and supposedly reliable in their labeling and quality. The same can be said for similar products from Texas.

“Do the healthy spreads, Smart Balance and Oilivio fulfill that need? Or is their olive oil fake, too?”

Good questions, are they?
