Where does our beloved olive oil come from? "Agromafia," CBS News' recent 60 Minutes report, detailed the involvement of organized crime in Italy's food business. Bill Whitaker's interview featured Sergio Tirro from Italy's so-called "food police" and Tom Mueller, whose 2011 book, "Extra Virginity: The Sublime and Scandalous World of Olive Oil" shed light on olive oil frauds.
Olive oil is our passion here at Foodiamo, so we had to investigate further. We contacted Diana Domenica Bruno of Una Vita, a world-class expert on olive oil, and curator of one of the world's top Extra Virgin Olive Oil collections, to get her take.
