I cant beleive the price of olive oil today. I dont understand how come an oil which is a renewable resource (olive oil) and very abundant can cost more than a non-renewable oil that is drawn from the ground which took millions of years to produce. I can go into a motor shop and buy 4 litres of a good oil for $20 but a good 4 litre olive oil will now cost me around $35.
Do you know why?
Do you know where i can get an olive oil in Perth for a decent price?

If you have an Aldi around they have a new line of quality products. A bottle that would cost me $9.00 at kroger only costs $4.00 there.

Olive oil is from a different source. as you see the bushes run the country with their oil, and the Iraq war well it cost us billion to be over there. We will fix their country and they will sell us oil or shall i say the Bushes oil and we should get our oil cheaper. Hopefully.. THey will say the world has learned to survive on this price and keep it there the Jerks......

Because the government gets more taxes off of Olive Oil
then they do other oils.
