Have you noticed that every published recipe and every cookbook calls for Canola Oil by name in all recipes? The reason is simple - the Canola Oil industry pays off the publishers, who are apparently easier to buy than politicians or scientists.

You literally can't get your cookbook published if you don't call for Canola Oil by name. I have seen some that call for Olive Oil (correct) AND Canola Oil (incorrect) to get around this.

Same with Yukon Gold potatoes which are a disaster in many recipes that call for them. I've seen the same work-around in recipes calling for the right potatoes AND Yukon Gold. I won't touch them either - except for research.
