That's a very odd case to critic, because it claimed to be "made with olive oil" while it merely contains olive oil, which seems like an open and shut case of deceit. Why are they advertising the olive oil and only the olive oil? Why not "Made with soybean" or "made with palm oil"?
It's not even clear to me how much olive oil it contains; according to the label it's "made with blend of plant-based oils (Soybean, Palm Fruit, Palm Kernel, Olive and Extra Virgin Olive Oil)". 1% olive oil would satisfy that, and given the relative costs and probably small to non-existent flavour differences, I'm betting it's a lot closer to 1% than 99%.
"Not reading the nutrition label" basically means "accept that the front is just a bald-faced lie". I got shit to do and a life to lead, and I don't want to scrutinize tiny text for everything I buy just to check if the basic facts on the front are correct. This is why regulations exist in the first place.
