Invictus' Guide to Buying Olive Oil

LINK

Sadly, there is manufacture fraud that takes place with olive oil.  How do you know if you’re really getting olive oil or a mix of some other oils?  This isn’t a foolproof way but a great start to test your olive oil by placing a small quantity of the oil in a glass bowl and refrigerate it for a few days. If it becomes crystalline, the chances are good that it is a true extra-virgin olive oil.  If it forms a block, it is most likely chemically refined oil that has had some first-pressed oil added to it.
