    I noticed a while ago that most cheap vegetable oils when you look at the ingredients are 100% rapeseed.
    Kinda funny when theres a bottle of swanky Rapeseed oil sitting beside it on the shelf for five euro more...

    Seems there is a difference. The cheaper generic stuff is allegedly "pressed using heat and chemicals" whilst the dearer stuff is now "cold pressed".

    “Many people just don’t realise that cold-pressed rapeseed oil is a completely different beast to rapeseed oil that is labeled vegetable oil or canola oil,” Sam says. “Those oils have no flavour, colour or provenance, while our oil has a light and nutty flavour, and is very flexible and versatile. It’s a great British alternative to olive oil – and healthier as well.”
