This book is going to end up costing me an arm and a leg, I'm sure. I learned a lot, much of it disheartening. That extra-virgin first-cold-press olive oil you bought at the supermarket? Is most likely fit only for burning in a lamp. It's almost certainly not extra-virgin, and it's quite possibly not even OLIVE oil. *sigh*Fortunately, Mueller does provide links and resources to help a person get hooked up with the real deal. The book itself is interesting but feels padded- the story could have been told in a feature article, though I did enjoy getting to know some of the olive farmers and their opinions.Books, they change your life.
