Guest guest Posted February 9, 2001 Report Share Posted February 9, 2001 * OK I am puzzled again, I thought that canola oil was ok for using. I have even seen it mentioned before on this list as an ok item, but are we just saying so or does anyone know for sure cause I just came across this paper from the " Celiac Sprue Association/ United States of America,Inc., P.O. Box 31700, Omaha, Nebraska 68131 " and on its " Basics for a Gluten-Free Diet " it says : Avoid these oils- Canola, cooking sprays with grain alcohol, vegetable oils trhat do not name source or compound,......... " Anyone know anything about this? from Long Island, New York ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2001 Report Share Posted February 10, 2001 Canola oil is GFCF to the best of my knowledge. I know we have had discussions before on whether to use or not- based on the ability to break down canola oil. If I'm remembering correctly I think it is harder to break down than other oils, BUT it is a " heathier " oil than most. Cara > * > OK I am puzzled again, I thought that canola oil was ok for using.
