Very interesting Joyfull!

Funny how this article does not surprise me and unfortunately many many ingredients out there (mostly commercial) are adulterated. Sometimes I think most people are so used to the fake stuff that they would think the real stuff would taste awful if they came across it.
Also it kind of puts a monkey wrench in the whole allergen control efforts when hazelnut oil (and other nut oils) are added to olive oil.

thanks for posting!
