ZyggyStardust, Canola oil was developed from rapeseed in Canada. I worked in a Saskatchewan radio station in the late 1970s and early 80s and I remember hearing the daily stock report for grains citing "rape" at such-and-such a price for the day. I am so much happier now hearing about canola rather than rape.

Grown in Great Britain, too. Was there several years ago, and on a bus tour the guide seemed to delight in telling us about the rapeseed fields.

Deborah , previous to the culture of rape for its seed, the golden-flowered fields of mustard were even more beautiful. Mustard seed was also used for its oil, very useful also in medicine

Canola fields in bloom are a beautiful sight. I am also glad they use the name canola now instead of rape or rapeseed.
