Well I just thought I would jump in here regarding Canola Oil.
I am not sure if I can even back this up but... My Grandmother spent time on the Canadian Prairies and she wouldn't use Canola Oil to grease parts! She used to claim that it is one of the original Genetically Modified Foods. According to her, when she was a kid, canola was a toxic plant until they went in and altered the DNA of the plant and then pushed it on all the Farmers to grow.I do not know when this all took place, I know that canola oil is a relatively new product (1970's) in our cupboards. Ha I think my mom used Crisco for everything

That is just something my long gone granny told me and I always believed her!
I have a question though. Where do people buy Coconut Oil for cooking? I see mention of it around but I am sure I have not seen it in regular grocery stores!
Thanks
