Well, tech­ni­cally speak­ing, olive oil is a liq­uid fat obtained from olives (the fruit of Olea europaea; fam­ily Oleaceae). If you crush a bunch of olives, you’ll get olive oil and some water. Gravity takes care of that — the oil will soon float to the top where it can be removed. That’s how sim­ple olive oil really is.
