Why Choose Canola Oil for My Kitchen?

For the health of it - Canola oil is a good source of vitamins E and K and is packed with omega 3 fats. Omega 3 fats are an anti-inflammatory that can help protect against heart attacks and strokes. Our bodies don’t produce omega 3 fats, so we need to get them from food.

It also has the lowest amount of saturated fats—half that of olive oil. Saturated fats are the fats linked to heart disease.

For the Taste of it – It’s neutral flavour and light taste makes it great for baking and cooking.  When you add herbs and spices, canola oil absorbs the flavours making it very versatile.

For the Heat of it – Canola oil is great to use on the barbeque because it has a high heat tolerance (as high as 242 C/468 F.) Other oils break down and lose their nutritional value at high temperatures. Don’t be afraid to fire up the grill—it can take the heat!

It’s Canadian – Grown for you by over 43,000 family farmers on the Canadian Prairies.  It’s your local Canadian choice.
