it's1 just another name for canola! teach people that it's canola! it's cognate with rapa, latin for "turnip"! because canola, like mustard greens, kale, broccoli, cabbage, brussels sprouts, basically every other edible plant on earth2, is a brassica! and brassicas are great

basically; "canola" is a proprietary name invented by the Rapeseed Association of Canada for a particular improved type of oil rapeseed, hence Can-ola
