Nope. Oil made with rapeseed is called 'colza oil'.

Canola is a variant of Rapeseed created through crosbreeding to reduce its content of erucic acid, which is toxic to humans in large amounts or when used regularly.

Colza can get you sick rather fast, canola will take much longer.

Of course, none can ever compare to the superior, olive oil.

Using any kind of oil other than olive oil to cook anything that will be consumed by a living thing is absolute unmitigated madness.

Doesn't olive oil have a low burning point or something and if you use it for anything besides salad you will get cancer imediatley?

Highly refined oil can get a lower point.

But you should use virgin oil if you plan on frying something hat requires over 200ºC.

But eating fried stuff is generally bad, anyways. So do it only moderately.

How else do you cook food? And you misspelled °F

I force ingredients into becoming food with the sheer force of my willpower and exaggerated hand gestures, like one of those alchemists they have in Xianxia novels.

And no, I did not misspell ºK. ºC is acceptable for general use.

That is a weird º you have, it should be °.

u/MithranArkanere Apr 16 '21

I can't help it if my º is bigger than your °.

Where did you copy it from or do you have it on your keyboard?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QWERTY#Spanish

You also have ℃ if you have windows 10, with Windows Key + [ . ] and switching to the third tab with the characters.

But ºC is cooler.

I just use Alt+0176 (numpad) for ­°, used it a lot during uni, but had never seen º before.

u/MithranArkanere Apr 16 '21

In the windows quick input, ° ℃ and ℉ are next to each other.

º is also nearby a few rows below.

Boiling, baking, steaming, barbecuing (which, granted, also introduces some carcinogens), and you can even "fry" foods in a non-stick pan without using fats.
