When I asked this question, I expected that replies would have read
the original message. I was wrong!! The bit quoted above says what I
meant. The oil label says "Lemon Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil". If
there was a suggestion of the oil being infused with lemons after
pressing, I would have not been so concerned, but the label clearly
implies that the lemons are added at extraction time.

Please, everyone, I know what the oil was. It was NOT cheap imported
(or at least claims to be Australian, from the Hunter region). It
concerns me that people are stating "facts" based on what they think
the oil may be, rather than a knowledge of the particular oil.

My question was not aimed at a specific oil, rather at the concept of
an EVOO which had been pressed with lemons.

Preferably ideas based on facts, rather than an assumption of the oil
I referred to.
