Olive Oil News

It has been recently reported that Italian Government has passed a law
(probably not enforceable) that the Origins of the olives used must be clearly stated on the Bottle or Tin of Olive Oil. This information comes from Agro Professional at www.agroprofesional.com/noticias.php?id=82491&comu=&ztipo=10&ini=0&ini2=

Also reported from the same source as well as the Independent is the news the EU has ordered the return of 176 million euros (more than half from Italy for quality control and other irregularities)of subsidies.
