via Five Thirty Eight<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Though there\u2019s a long history of scandal in the olive oil world, the problem in the U.S. for consumers is less about oil that isn\u2019t made from olives,1 and more about olive oil that doesn\u2019t meet the quality standards declared on its label. But since most people in the U.S. can\u2019t tell fusty2 and musty3 from pungent4 and fruity,5 low-quality olive oil masquerading as extra virgin is a hard problem to fix.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe call the U.S. the world\u2019s dumping ground for rancid and defective olive oil. We don\u2019t know the difference,\u201d said Sue Langstaff, a sensory scientist who consults for the beer, wine and olive oil industries, among others. Studies have shown that even frequent olive oil consumers in the U.S. don\u2019t know what the extra virgin or cold pressed designations mean, let alone have the ability to taste the difference. And in blind taste tests, consumers often prefer lower-quality olive oils.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We should be upset about this but if we\u2019re too stupid to know better, good on Italy \/ Greece for making billions off their lowest-quality oil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"via Five Thirty Eight: Though there\u2019s a long history of scandal in the olive oil world, the problem…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6206","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-linked","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-1C6","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":3927,"url":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/2013\/03\/04\/dinner-restaurant-relae\/","url_meta":{"origin":6206,"position":0},"title":"\u2605 Dinner @ Restaurant Rel\u00e6","author":"Adam Chandler","date":"March 4, 2013","format":false,"excerpt":"On Saturday evening, I visited\u00a0Rel\u00e6.
