[Fwd: Fw: FW: Fw: Where does Canola Oil come from, unbelievable]

Thanks Gerhard.

I was aware of this data and have been speaking out against Canola Oil for years.

It is amazing how easily the general public is sold a "bill of goods".

Love,

Ian

Dear Ian, I thought you might be interested. M.L. Gerhard
