I will take a closer look at the price tags in our next grocery shopping, Dora1. Thank you. :please: Will definitely consider.


5 litre canola at $15 sounds worth the buy. Tks for the heads up!

It's a specially-bred variety of rapeseed. See:

Actually all oils should still be used in moderation no matter how \"healthy\" the claims are. Too much intake of oils will still cause weight gain even if it's the \"good oil\". It's just that palm oils are high in saturated fats, which we should avoid.

Actually if not comfortable with canola oil, sunflower or corn oil are also quite versatile. I use sunflower oil sometimes also.

Eh, I just remembered. Buds, for the canola oil that you have, try to finish within 6 months. Oil tend to oxidise under heat and light and oxygen. So once opened, store in cool dry place in the dark, and away from the stove.

Thanks, Dora1.. it is in a cool very dry place in the kitchen cabinet. Ok, will take note of the 6-mth consumption period once opened note.
