Shocking findings of a study done by the University of California-Davis (UCD) analyzing the quality of avocado oils currently on the market in the United States, highlighted rampant fraud in the food industry.
In the study, out of 22 avocado samples including both extra virgin and refined oils from six grocery stores (14 samples) and two online sources (eight samples) “at least 82 percent of test samples were either stale before the expiration date or mixed with large amounts of other oils,” a UCD report on the study noted.
