I am not meaning to insult you or anyone reading this.
You think this is real?
The olive oil industry is rife with fraud and has some pretty deep ties to the Mafia, actually. I can say, with all honesty, that I’ve had at least one bottle of “the real stuff,” because a Mafia Nonna gave it to me after an encounter where we accidentally came into a Mafia front down here and she insisted on cooking for my wife and I and then gave us a bottle of olive oil and said “No, don’t you go wasting this. You won’t find this in the grocery store.” Long story, I’ve spoken about it here before.
Most olive oil is adulterated. Most calling itself EVOO is not Extra-Virgin.
“Truffle” oil.
Most truffle oil does not have any truffle at all. Instead it has flavorings that are sort of like truffle. I don’t mind it, because it has its purposes, but if you’ve had actual white truffles, you’ll note that it’s very different. But hey, if I’m sprinkling it over fries, I’m not paying for the good stuff.
Also, that oil is likely not real olive oil to begin with!
“Honey.”
Most honey you buy in the store has about as much to do with bees as I do with polar bears. It is a purely synthetic product.
Most likely not from a tree at all.
Most maple syrup you’ll find is not, in fact, maple syrup and is definitely not pure.
