This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Not all olive oil is created equal. In light of rampant industry fraud, product transparency and consumer enlightenment are essential. In this in-depth talk, learn what makes olive oil special and how to know if you are using the real thing.
Trevor Clements is a founding partner of the Brookings, SD-based Coteau des Prairies Olive Oil Co. which operates online and out of the retail wine boutique at the Pheasant Restaurant, where Trevor also wears many hats. As a trained and dedicated purveyor of fresh, authentic extra virgin olive oil, Trevor is passionate about consumer education and product transparency in an unregulated industry which commonly profits from the lack of it.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
