Named long ago, when people weren't so sensitive about words.

  The term "rape" derives from the Latin word for turnip, rāpa or rāpum, cognate   
  with the Greek word ῥάφη, rhaphe.

It's called canola oil in the US. I understand it needs to be highly processed since it naturally contains glucosinolates and erucic acid which are both toxic. In general it really isn't that good for you. Olive oil/avocado oil are better options if you have the budget.
