Makes sense, although I am dubious about canola oil. Olive oil has been proven healthy for thousands of years. Canola oil was first suggested by the food Nazis, who nearly always prove wrong in the end.

I don’t KNOW that. But I’ll stick with good old olive oil.

They may be right on this one; IIRC Canola oil is another term for Rapeseed oil. There was a movie called Lorenzo's Oil in which Rapeseed oil (IIRC, it's been a while) plays the major part in medication for a boy with a disease that degenerates the mylin [sp?] sheathes that insulate nerves. Good movie.
