Canola Oil And Extra Virgin Olive Oil Blend

This is a blend of two common cooking oils: canola oil and extra virgin olive oil. Canola oil comes from the seeds of the canola plant, which is a variety of rapeseed. Extra virgin olive oil is made from pressed olives.

Manufacturers blend these oils to create a cooking oil with a balanced flavor and smoke point, suitable for various cooking methods like sautéing, roasting, and dressing. They are often found in salad dressings, marinades, and other prepared foods where a combination of richness and lighter flavor is desired.

Both canola oil and olive oil are widely used in foods and are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. They are sources of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which are considered healthy fats. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated these oils, and they are commonly consumed within typical dietary patterns. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming these oils in moderation.
