He said he couldn't see anything with the word 'rape' in it. BTW,
anyone else bothered by the fact that they are using a
slightly-modified industrial lubricant in almost everything we eat
nowadays? And that in its natural form it's deadly? What if someone
unethical were to use the wrong plant to make oil... I try not to
think about it too much...

Rape seed isn't boring.

Actually, it was Goomba who said she filtered out the word "rape". Alan's
just yanking her chain

Hi Karen,

You might want to think about it more, rather than less...

Why would one be concerned that a food product also had
benefit as an "industrial lubricant?"

Also, the plant that is used for its production of the food
oil (usually called Canola) was created by cross cultivating
other plants, one of which, as you suggest, is toxic.

But, if that is of concern to you, I would hope that you do
not eat tomatoes. (They are nightshades, you know.)<g>

All the best,

Not particularly. It's been selectively bred to reduce the erucic acid
content to a level that's safe for humans.

Lots of food plants are dangerous in their unmodified form. Don't
believe me? Eat some raw cassava root or red kidney beans some day.

I'm sure there are testing protocols in place to make sure the erucic
acid content is at safe levels.

I use the KY *after* foreplay so I don't have to taste it.
