          oil? Is canola oil a dream come true or a deadly poison? And why has 
          canola captured so large a share of the oils used in processed foods?</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.westonaprice.org/knowyourfats/conola.html"><P> Promotion of olive oil, which had a long history of use, seemed more 
          scientifically sound to the health-conscious consumer than the promotion 
          of corn and soy oil, which could only be extracted with modern stainless 
          steel presses. The problem for the industry was that there was not enough 
          olive oil in the world to meet its needs. And, like butter and other 
          traditional fats, olive oil was too expensive to use in most processed 
          foods. The industry needed a less expensive monounsaturated oil. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.westonaprice.org/knowyourfats/conola.html"> Reports on the dangers of rapeseed oil are rampant on the internet</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.westonaprice.org/knowyourfats/conola.html">Some of the claims are ludicrous.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.westonaprice.org/knowyourfats/conola.html"> These studies all point in the same direction--that canola oil is
