   I am an olive oil producer, in Portugal, and we're harvesting as I type. I have made some remarks about olive oil production on HN in the past, but here are some remarks about olive oil quality, grading, and production: Olive oils do d

    I don't understand why your comment is being downvoted. Downvotes shouldn't be used as a form of simple disagreement. I made a simple question, you gave it a simple answer.
