An independent lab in Saddlebrook, N.J., found three of the products, including the Krinos, tested fine. But the Hermes did not.

"It appears as though it were at least 50 percent adulterated," said Ron Schnitzer, a lab technician.

Similar results were found in tests of another can of Hermes extra-virgin olive oil and a lesser-grade brand, Hermes Pomace Oil.

"Someone's obviously made a conscious effort to cheapen this particular product," Schnitzer said. "I would think it [the additional ingredient] is characteristic of soy oil or canola oil."
