Appropriate for the next segment. It deals with food. In this case, real food and fake food. The big question is how do you we spoke to the author of a new book to find out. What if i told you the lobber the roll youre eating isnt lobber, or the tuna isnt tuna. Larry olmsted, an author exposes the issue in real food, fake food. When i travel, i try to eat the local food. I would come home and try to have similar dishes. He said food re the u,s. , especially for restaurants are more lax than those in many other countries. That Means Companies get away with using cheaper, sometimes deceptive ingredients. According to one study an estimated 80 to 85 of olive oil is diluted with other oils. And the red snapper was a substitute. Once you cut up a white fish, a lot of consumers might say i want to eat naturally raised meat. Its hard to do. Natural has no definition. Grass fed beef, grass fed on a label doesnt mean its what i would call grass fed beef. Reporter he says the key is knowing what to look for. Sometimes its as simple as buying foods whole. For anything, buy coffee beans, you get coffee. Buy ground coffee, you cant tell. Reporter another tip, look at the ingredient list. The food and Drug Administration is lax about other labels but strict about those. You might be wondering how you can tell the difference between the real or fake food. Sometimes it can be harder than you think. Larry is here to give us tips on some of the more common things. Olive oil is a big one. Tell us why. Oil being labeled extra virgin that doesnt meet the standard. Its hard to tell just looking at the bottle. I recommend if you can buying at a store that actually lets you smell and taste the oil which some Gourmet Stores do. When you taste it and smell it, you can tell the difference. Once you try good oil, youll know what it tastes like. Much different from your standard run of the mill. And what do you look for on the bottle . I would look for a pressed on not a use by date. The use by date is irrelevant. You want it to have been pressed or harvested within six to nine months. Only Good Olive Oil will have that on the label. Parmesan cheese is another one. Most people cant tell the difference. Real Parmesan Cheese from italy is pure with no drugs. One of the most natural cheeses you can buy which is why its a and the way you can tell is the rind itself has the words parmesan embossed in it always. If you dont see that on the rind, you know its not from italy. And you can taste the difference. This is even a good domestic. This is one of the best domestic ones you could buy. And then sushi. Thats a big problem. I love sushi. With fish, the more you can see is the better. This sushi you get a better look. This is crab. Most sushi places its a block of that reconstituted crab stuff. Its harder to fake a cut of salmon . This is a wild pacific salmon. Look at the color difference. This is supermarket salmon. How bright and vibrant that is. I think ill have to taste it to make sure its the real thing. One other tip, if you buy, i not everybody does. If you do, thats the kind of like thats not faked. Its a less expensive product and recognizable. Sometimes when you go with the cheaper fish youre better off because theyre not as widely counterfeited. You get what you ordered. And how does the tuna work. How do you fake it . Theres a lot of substitutes. Theres cheaper things, tilapia is used. Sometimes you only see a sliver of fish and you cant tell what it is. The more of the product you can see, the better, generally speaking . Right. The author of real food fake food. Larry olmsted. So many examples in the book.
