I'm sure you know the facts, so I won't bother cutting and pasting.
Because although I too know the facts, it also makes me smile that in the original use of the word virgin, extra virgin cannot happen. Like recovering from a fatal illness, or being almost unique.
Anyway, I believe the extra virgin claim on olive oil to be pretty much a con these days.
Perhaps buying in a small village where the oil has been sampled after pressing - yes, it's special.
Whole shelves of supermarkets selling extra virgin? Ah - no.
Tonight I decided to go against all previous plans and have char sui bao.
Go figure.
