That is great to hear. I assume Extra Virgin Olive oil there is actually pure olive oil and not mixed with unhealthy seed oils?

The back of my Australian olive oil. All our food and drink has this, except alcohol which they regulate differently.

It is how it should be and it is similar here too, but despite labels like this, there has been plenty of fake olive oil discovered as the government stopped checking for quality. Looks like it is the same in Australia but sounds like they are doing something about it. https://www.abc.net.au/news/rural/2024-04-10/australian-extra-virgin-olive-oil-monitoring-program-starts/103688916
