Does anyone know if there are nuts in Canola Oil?
Thanks

Canola oil is made from rapeseed. It isn't a nut. So no, there are no nuts in canola oil. Not sure why it is called canola oil in the US, over here it's plain old rapeseed oil.

As UKSAHM said, Canola oil is made from rapeseed oil. Canola was originally naturally bred from rapeseed in Canada by Keith Downey and Baldur R. Stefansson in the early 1970s, but it has a very different nutritional profile in addition to much less erucic acid.The name "canola" was derived from "Canadian oil, low acid" in 1978. See <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canola> for more information.
I would be careful of the source if it's a severe allergy. Make sure they aren't making peanut oil at the same plant.
