Please see below some general information about the canola oil.
A mild-flavored vegetable oil, canola is a good all-purpose oil. It is the lowest in polyunsaturated fat of any oil
on the market. Following close behind in quality are safflower and sunflower oils. It has almost no taste and is used both for cooking and for salad dressings.
Canola oil is the market name for rapeseed oil which, as might be assumed from the name, is expressed from rape seeds. For obvious reasons, the name was changed to canola by the Canadian seed-oil industry.
Canola is, in fact, Canada's most widely used oil. It's commonly referred to there as lear oil, for "low erucic
acid rapeseed" oil. The popularity of canola oil is rising fast in the United States, probably because it's been
discovered to be lower in saturated fat (about 6 percent) than any other oil. This compares to the saturated
fat content of peanut oil (about 18 percent) and palm oil (at an incredibly high 79 percent). Another canola oil
selling point is that it contains more cholesterol-balancing monounsaturated fat than any oil except olive oil.
Lower in saturated fat than any other oil, canola oil also contains Omega-3 fatty acids which are said to lower cholesterol.
