Rapeseed comes from a plant in the turnip family and is related to cabbage and mustard. It has both industrial and cooking applications. The most common form of rapeseed oil is called canola oil, named after its country of origin (Canada) and being low in acid. You should be able to find canola oil in a supermarket.

The name rapeseed comes from rapa or rapum, an old Latin word for turnip. It has a different etymology from the word for sexual assault, despite being the same word.
