Consumer questions respondents didn’t know how to answer

  • The best I ever got was: “Do you have any banana-flavoured oil?”
  • A lot!
  • The issue of olive oil being/not being suitable for frying at high temperatures.
  • What oleocanthal value does your oil have?
  • Mostly the chemical analyses type questions
  • Aust standards logo
  • Exactly how many olives did it take to make a bottle of oil ?—(You can answer that one)
  • Are imported olive oil products really evoo?
  • why so expensive compared to supermarket
  • Have been able to answer all questions
  • Have handled all questions so far
  • Who is going to win the US election?
  • Have been able to answer them all so far
  • Is it any good?
  • I haven’t been able to tell them that the oil is extra virgin because I don’t have it tested. Because of our small volumes it is not worth it, we always sell it all anyway. I am not sure if I had the acidity test kit that it would confirm the oil is extra virgin or if I have to send it away to be tested.
  • Always is it first pressed and extra virgin…they seem to know these terms but little else
