This five minute video shows where canola oil, vegetable shortening, and cattle feed come from. No wonder our spending on health care is so high.

Nice that it starts out with the atypical gaslighting on its health properties.

That looks really grungy. Like under the hood of a car.

I wonder what a commercial olive press or butter churn looks like in action. Or a lard renderer.

I hope none of those involve solvents or sodium hydroxide.

My bride and I use olive oil and butter. Only olive oil and butter.

Canola Incorporated never convinced us.

Avocado oil is also okay but we mostly use butter and olive oil.

I suppose the cooking oil the Chinese pull out of drains outside restaurants is just as healthy:

--- "Avocado oil is also okay...."

Agree. But we eat them. Guacamole! Yeah!

“[a]This five minute video shows where canola oil, vegetable shortening, and cattle feed come from. [b] No wonder our spending on health care is so high.”

The video presented nothing (evidence) to justify [b].

I hope none of those involve solvents or sodium hydroxide.

You would be shocked at the food products that use the solvent dihydrogen monoxide. And they sometimes neutralize it with Hydrogen Hydroxide.

Please join the campaign to ban the use of dihydrogen monoxide in food production.

“My bride and I use olive oil and butter. Only olive oil and butter.”

My wife could be a chef as well as a good nurse.

We basically only use real butter, olive oil from a good friend and Costco’s Extra Virgin oil.
