There are many articles on the internet about this problem that you can Google to learn more. Here's just one from Forbes magazine.

FYI, this article was from 2016
It is good info and I wish they would do a newer version of this. I am sure it still goes on today.

They say that Grocery store oils are also adulterated as well, all oils. I can't find that article right now but I think it also was an older one as well.

Always know who you buy from and where THEY buy from.

not all olive oil is adulterated. Italian oils have the highest risk, but you can still buy true olive oils and also taste if they are adulterated. For soap making, I always get COAs and the testing information to make sure I am getting what I am paying for.

extra virginity is a book about olive oil that i really enjoyed reading.
