Non-gmo Canola Oil Soybean Oil

Canola oil is a vegetable oil made from the seeds of the canola plant. The plant is a cultivar of rapeseed. The oil is extracted and refined, often using heat and solvents, then purified and deodorized.

Canola oil is a common cooking oil used in a wide variety of processed foods. Manufacturers use it for its neutral flavor, light texture, and ability to improve mouthfeel and shelf life. It is found in salad dressings, baked goods, snacks, and frozen meals.

Canola oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, including omega-3 fatty acids. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated it. Some studies suggest benefits for heart health, while others raise questions about processing methods and potential inflammation, though evidence is mixed.
