A nice way to achieve that is to get cheap “salad oil”, which is a blend of olive oil and some other oil. GEM is a common brand where I live. Usually it’s in a bigger container. Chances are, the light olive oil is the same thing, but 3x more. |

I guess it's possible, but there's profit without doing that too. All the research I've heard (eg 80% fake) is for EVOO. I guess it could be like the subway fake tunafish scandal (debunked?)*. You can get a lot more oil out of olives after the first press, but you don't get the flavor or smell, and it's certainly a lot cheaper to make
Seems like there's more money in suing a reputable producer for an allergic reaction than cutting $5-10/liter extra light olive oil with $3-5/liter corn/soy/peanut/canola. That's gonna kill somebody!
