If you bought Bertolli Olive Oil, you could be part of a class-action lawsuit.

The company is being accused of deceptive advertising for claiming some of its products were "imported from Italy" and were "extra virgin."

“Common sense also dictates that Turkish or Chilean olive oil does not somehow become ‘from Italy’when shipped to Italy. Yet until after this case was filed, Deoleo systematically used this misrepresentation to dupe consumers into paying a premium for oil falsely labeled as Italian,” the Bertolli olive oil lawsuit states.

To be included in the class-action, you must have purchased certain olive oils in any state outside of California between 2010 and 2015.
