As the price of olive oil continues to skyrocket, international crime rings infiltrate the market with fraudulent or adulterated olive oil. In 2023, Italian inspectors found 380 tons of counterfeit virgin olive oil worth 2 million Euros, accusing 17 individuals of mislabeling and phony advertising.
