Authentic, real extra virgin olive oil can get expensive going for as much as $50 a gallon. This is why in order to cut cost and maximize profits, the food industry has been adding cheap additives like sunflower or canola oil to pure extra virgin olive oil to make the same gallon of ‘olive oil’ for around $7.
Unfortunately, this adulterated olive oil can be tagged as extra virgin olive oil. It can be a mixture of various olive oils from different countries. The circulation of fake olive oil is so common that you find many famous brands advertising themselves as authentic extra virgin olive oil.
Be cautious when you buy your olive oil.

HOW TO TEST OLIVE OIL:
You can easily check the olive oil you have at home. Just simply place the olive oil in the fridge for half an hour. If it starts to solidify, it means that the oil is pure. And if it doesn’t solidify, it mean the olive oil is fake.
Also look for “California Olive Oil Council Certified Extra Virgin” approval.
