Hi SJD,

A few weeks ago a friend sent me a very interesting article about the olive oil industry and about how best to choose the olive oil you're going to buy.

The article is written by Tom Mueller, author of Extra Virginity:The Sublime and Scandalous World of Olive Oil.

Below (after I sign off) I'm going to include some quotes from the article, which I found quite fascinating. Since reading the article, I have changed to a different, and more delicious, olive oil.

Hope this helps!

: just how much difference there is
: in the quality of the products..
: The grocery store shelves have a
: baffling array of different ones
: from tiny very expensive ones to
: large vats. Is there much
: difference in the tastes?
