== Introduction ==
In november 2020 @stephane asked to have a look at the products in the olive oil category. The category was in need of cleaning up. An olive oil should have a Nutriscore D or C, but other values were seen. So I had a look at the products and cleaned a bit. This post is a log of my observations.

== Background ==
Olive oils are a special category for Nutriscore, as they are a special case for the score calculation. Olive oil is seen as one of the better oils, and thus may get a better score. This exception was recently introduced (a refrence here?).

However all oils are bad, so olive oil will never get a better score than C. This has provoked a lot of resistance in Italy and Spain, as olive oil is seen as a major export product. Those countries might leave out olive oil from the Nutriscore obligation.
