Olive Oil racket

An old New Yorker article

In 1997 and 1998, olive oil was the most adulterated agricultural product in the European Union, prompting the E.U.’s anti-fraud office to establish an olive-oil task force. (“Profits were comparable to cocaine trafficking, with none of the risks,” one investigator told me.)

This kinda shocked me a little..... I see how the Piromallis got so rich now....

Question...

1. Colavita? Profaci? Still?

2. Any other families in on this racket? Maybe Cali through his food companies?

Colavita is still owned by the family
