Vent: Found out my 'organic' olive oil was probably fake for 3 years

I was reading a report from the UC Davis Olive Oil Center and they tested 124 bottles from California grocery stores. 73 of them didn't match the harvest date or origin stated on the label. I have been buying this $18 bottle from a local market for 3 years and now I am wondering if I ever actually tasted real olive oil. Has anyone else checked their pantry after seeing those numbers?

Got any of the bottles left so you can check the harvest date yourself?

I see that differently, a harvest date on a bottle tells you nothing about how it was stored before you bought it.
