The modern food oil industry is such a confusion one in my opinion.
For example, canola oil is actually just rapeseed oil. They had to cultivate breeds of brasiccas that were low enough in erucic acid for human consumption. Then they realized that selling rapeseed oil may not be a great brand and they named it Canola, Canadian oil low acid.
Also pretty much anything you would think of as a vegetable oil isn't actually a vegetable oil, its a seed oil.
