It is estimated that 70% of Olive Oils in super markets are fraudulent so I definitely don't think truffle oil contains the good stuff.

I just read somewhere that the only Whole Foods 365 evoo that is actually pure and unblended is their California one and not any of the other Mediterranean country ones. Super sketchy. This should be outlawed.

It is outlawed. Organized crime controls a shocking proportion of the European olive oil market. For the last several years, I've exclusively bought olive oil grown and produced in America. To my knowledge, it's all real.
