Trivia
Our organic canola oil is cold-pressed from the erucic acid-free 00 rapeseed. Until the erucic acid-free cultivation in the 1970s, canola oil was only used in the technical field, as this fatty acid is suspected of promoting cardiovascular diseases. The canola plant is now one of the most important crops in the world.
