Czech controls on olive oil have found two-thirds of samples were non-compliant.
The Czech Agriculture and Food Inspection Authority (SZPI) focused on the quality of olive oils on the domestic market.
Overall, 67 percent of evaluated samples failed to meet the requirements of European legislation. The most severe findings were olive oils that did not correspond to the extra virgin label when assessed and were of lower quality. Two samples matched the category lampante oil, which is not meant for retail sale and is intended for further processing.
