Yup. I've always wondered why people pay 20 times more for an Italian
olive oil of the same caliber. I do remember reading in the NYT of how
much olive oil Spain sells to Italy. But I don't know what grade? I have
tasted excellent EVOO from Italy, but they were very $$$. Luckily, they
was given to me as a gift.

I use Goya's EVOO for salads, et cetera. And use corn oil for deep
frying; butter for the rest.

I love olive oil; but I do remember getting saturated with the stuff on
a trip to Greece. I left the country promising never to use olive oil
again : ) I don't think there was a food item that they did not add
olive oil to. Don't get me wrong; I love Greek food and their culture
very much.
