Rapeseed oil is used for industrial and culinary purposes. To be called canola oil, it must have a lower erucic acid content and meet international standards. I am surrounded by those beautiful yellow canola fields here on the Canadian Prairie! This plant is genetically different than “Rapeseed” - which has the unsavoury name and produces an oil which is not appealing for culinary uses. The byproduct of the oil production- the canola meal, is used in animal feeds.
Any oil heavily processed to be 'acceptable" is Not Healthy! Much research now showing interferes with the human body's important endocrine/hormonal system , responsible for metabolic disorder. Canola Oil needs to be Banned!
Rubbish it's the same seed. Rapeseed is grown in England and called rape seed. It is then purchased and turned into canola oil. It's all about marketing. Just like flaxseed, which is marketed as a health product when it was mostly used to produce linseed oil for paint although both have very different extraction methods as well of course the plant fibers were used for manufacturing linen, it's all about marketing.
Now you've got the romantic fluffy side of canola oil out of the way. The reality is Canola Oil is extracted was the use of a solvent called Hexane which is made from crude oil, yes, good old Texas tea.
Damaging components in our modern diet are processed vegetable oils, as they contain excessive amounts of oxidized omega-6 linoleic acid, a polyunsaturated fat (PUFA). Canola oil contains 21% linoleic acid. Olive oil, as an example, contains 10%, Butter contains 2%!!!! In my humble opinion, canola is Not a preferred choice! P.S. Look to what processed foods contain as well!
Yes, for sure you have presented information that very few people know, but why did you stop without getting into the dangerous components of Rapeseed oil, aka canola oil, from the Canadian Oil Council such as erucic acid. This "oil" is very likely not the "healthy" oil it has been reported to be. After looking into it, I never use canola oil for food preparation, however, that's something everyone has to decide for themselves. Thing is, give all the information not just part of it, otherwise you come across as promoting.
I have done some research on this oil and found it is not healthy for human consumption. It was first made for industrial purposes and now we are consuming it!
They always get it wrong. "Canola " stands for CAnada Oil Low Acid referring to the GMO version containing low acid because the non GMO version is unedible because of its acid content.

Many years ago, here in Canada they did change the name of the Rapeseed plant to be called a Canola plant. No one here in Canada use the word Rapeseed anymore.
brutally_honest - thanks for the insights. I appreciate the info. We suspect this is going to be a topic that many will weigh in on, and we'll do a follow up - we'll include this info! Thanks! Best, DFJ
You never ever let us down.. another video straight to the point and 💯 real all the time.. Thank You 😊

I didn't realize that. That was very interesting thank you

Thanks for this Farmer man!!! Appreciate your videos ❤

Another interesting and informative video. I am always learning something new here. 😁👍
So since I am on TH-cam I thought I would look up Rapeseed on how it is made. You broaden my mind. Enjoy the weekend.

Hey thanks for sharing love your videos.
Thanks! Very informative...and entertaining.
Very cool info. Thank you for sharing that 😊
Deadly oil

@@larrymoore6640 please canola oil and how it’s deadly. Too long for this here.
I’ve read it’s been outlawed in other countries. After the turkeys died, they quit testing.
counter-point : it was thanksgiving.
I definitely don't have canola oil in my pantry. I have extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil. I also use butter (not blended with anything).
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota

Thanks for authoritative statements! Best, DFJ
I knew it was from Canada (great homage to William Shatner aka Captain Kirk) when talking about the country. I never knew the name of the plant.
Crayola used to call a yellow crayon rape. They changed it when everybody became citizen and didn't know what they were referring to.
Very interesting.
I went down the Rabbit Hole.. Now I’m here! 😂
Love it.
We just call it rapeseed oil in Europe, guess it doesn't scare us. But is it really a vegetable oil?
There is a deeper history of this oil and how it was re purpose
Canadian(CAN) Oil(O) Low Acid(LA)

Rape and Canola are very different. Canola is a very highly modified version and is hardly the same!
CANOLA meaning.......
"Canadian Oil Low Acid"
Canada oil low acid
Bonjour 🇩🇿🌹🇩🇿
Any kind of seed oil is bad for you. Canola oil is man-made modified! The best is still lard ❤️
Thanks, Jody!
