I know it's not the point of this post but holy cow is that an atrocious AI image.

They use a fake image in the article about fake olive oil. Ironic.

Reminds me of Mafia! (1998) where the guy is squeezing the oil out of olives by hand.

Answer from the article : "simple analysis can unmask the fraud. Like the fatty acids composition test, or the sterol composition, as well as the spectrophotometric constants"

Oh. OK. Easy. Next time at the grocery store I will check that.

In the US, this is supposed to be legit: https://www.californiaoliveranch.com/products/100-california-everyday/41079566074040

They sell blends as well, but the 100% is well tested and is very good
