Hi,

We currently buy rapeseed oil from the supermarket, but its quite expensive at €4 for 500ml.

Amazon have a container of 5 litres of 100% pure cold pressed Rapeseed oil for £22.95. Its exactly the same as what I would buy in the supermarket, however this particular product is marketed as a diet supplement for horses, do you think it would still be ok to buy for cooking for humans?

The ingredients are just 100% rapeseed oil so I dont see why it couldnt be used for cooking?

Any opinions?

If you wish to consume what is being sold as a "diet supplement for horses" - go ahead. But on your own head be it. Food safety advice should neither be sought nor given on this forum.
