What are the ingredients. Now we see mostly written ''olive oil'', or something like that. But does that convey anything? Preferably we would like to know the olive variety (or varieties). The origin of the olives and the processes applied to extract the oil. Words like ''virgin'', ''extra virgin'', ''cold-pressed'', ''AOP'', the origin of the olives, etc provides more information and is good information.

Now and then the information available on the package does provide more information, like "huile d'olive de catégorie supérieure obtenue directement des olives et uniquement par des procédés mécaniques". So we know it is made from cold pressed olives.

=== Serving size ===
 
The products sold in the note a serving size on 15 ml on their packaging, which is equivalent to 1 tablespoon. Instead of the 15 ml, a weight of 14 g can be given. This weight corresponds to the specific gravity of 0.911 of olive oils ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olive_oil wikipedia]). On products sold in Europe a serving size of 10 ml can sometimes be found. The usefulness of having a serving size for a cooking aid can be debated. In fact 15 ml seems a lot.
