I read years ago that there was no such thing as canola. Marketers were concerned they would have a hard time selling something called rape oil so they invented the word canola. Are you telling me I have been mis- informed all these years?

I hate say it but yes you were mis-informed there is fall and spring canola and winter Rape and spring rape. canola oil is used more for cooking oil, rape seed oil is more of a intdustrial oil.
