This is sacrilege. Olive oil is one of the staples of a long, healthy life. That some olive oil purveyors would subsitute soybean oil and call it olive oil is an abomination. Soybean oil is not that good for you. It's analagous to a beer brewery using putting rice into a brew that should only contain water, yeast, hops and barley.

The head of these companies comitting this fraud shoud be elected to office by the geniuses who vote in Jersey. They'd get a cleaner gubmint.

"We will not permit New Jersey consumers to be defrauded," said U.S. Attorney Christopher J. Christie...he had no comment, however, when asked about former Gov McGreevy paying his absolutely unqualified boyfriend with tax funds as NJ's Director of Homeland Security - apparently fraud by 'rat politicians in NJ is perfectly permissible......

Popeye would be saddened to discover that a substitution was made for his beloved OliveOil. Or perhaps he would enjoy the change! They say variety is the "spice of life".

Pseudo olive oil is usually found at 99 cent stores. Even there, I can find the pure (though not extra virgin) stuff from Lebanon, Turkey, or Syria.
How can they get away with this in Passaic County, where people KNOW real olive oil!

I will admit to the love of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and would be really upset to discover I bought a bottle that had been cut with Soy Bean Oil.

How long is olive oil good? I've had some for an unknown time that I used tonight. It says to store in a cool dark place. I've had it in my cupboard but we had a hot summer. Well, if I die tonight, you guys will know what it was from.

Easy test to determine whether you have real olive oil or a substitute.
Put it in the refrigerator.
Real olive oil will congeal. Not to Crisco but thicken.
Soy, peanut, etc won't.

Popular brand. Sacrilege. This is olive oil, not some buttery tasting tub of junk.

Pomace olive oil is the dregs of olive oil. I use it to make soap.
