The best thing you can do is to buy your olive oil from a reputable place. More and more places that sell only organic and natural products are popping up. If you can find a store that only sells high-quality products, you may be able to actually try the olive oil. Real extra virgin olive oil is not bland, it has a nutty taste as well as the taste of real olives.
Your best bet is to buy a smaller quantity of olive oil. You don’t want to buy the real deal and then find out it went rancid because you had it for too long. You are better off finding a small family run business that you can trust. Just because it is a big national company doesn’t mean it hasn’t been diluted in order to make a higher profit.
