Greece supposedly has better quality control and more stringent legislation. But, to be fair, anything other than italian is great.

Because it was found out that the Italian companies were cutting the oil with 30 to 40% (or more) additives to thin that shit out. It's controlled by the mafia so it's no wonder they're fucking scamming people.
Avoid italian.

Ithink most "italian" olive oil is basically rebranded greek/portugese/tunisian olive oil.

This. The muslims in Europe might screech and cry about it, but California has the Mediterranean beat in wine AND olives. It has higher production standards and a superior flavor, plus it's actually monitored and regulated rather than dilluted by the literal fucking mafia. European olive oil is a meme.

US citizen here. What's some good, easily-available olive oil? I want the strongest tasting olive oil possible, as if I'm biting into an olive. I got pic related, and it's pretty bland.
