No, it is the oil extracted from the seed of a weed known as rape. Rapeseed oil was originally extracted for use as a motor oil. The oil was later processed to remove most of the erucic acid (a known carcinogen) in the oil. This made it acceptable to the Canadian Authorities as a food oil. It has never been tested by the US FDA, but accepted as safe.
