The rapeseed plant usually blooms in the summer and is famous for its golden-yellow flowers. Belonging to the cabbage family, it’s closely related to turnip and mustard. Its oil — known both as rapeseed oil — is widely used for cooking, baking, and food processing.
Originally, culinary rapeseed oil was developed via traditional crossbreeding. However, most varieties available today are genetically modified (GM) to be pest resistant. Thus, these products are generally classified as genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
