True, but I am lucky enough to have a Greek food market four blocks away that sells Horio, the best mass market EV olive oil, at a reasonable price.

I also went into my local Food Town the other day looking at "Roma" Olive Oil that was on sale. When I looked on the back it said "Product of Turkey."

I am also the only non-Greek that I know of who enjoys Retsina. Compliments mezes better than any other beverage.

I could be wrong, but it appears that those Greeks who like the United States come here to live, while those who hate us seem to stay behind.
