69% of olive oil in U.S. is not pure olive oil

Meanwhile, shipments of soybean oil or other cheap oils are labeled olive oil... At a refinery, the olive oil is cut with cheaper oil... The "olive oil" is shipped around the world, to countries like the U.S., where approximately 69 percent of the olive oil for sale is doctored.
