&gt;&quot;Canola oil [aka rapeseed oil, present in many foods] is one of the worst fats one could put in their body because it contains erucic acid that damages the heart.&quot;<p>FYI, reducing the erucic acid content in canola seeds it one of the main targets of canola breeding - you have to have less than 2% erucic acid and low contents of glucosinolates to qualify for the name of &quot;canola&quot; (it&#x27;s a trademark: &quot;Canada oil&quot;, or possibly &quot;Can(ada)+o(il)+l(ow)+a(cid)&quot;).<p>Wild seeds have too much acid to be edible, cultivars have very low content of erucic acids, so I agree with you, it shouldn&#x27;t be that much of a problem.
