Answer 10

Vegetable oil is from rapeseed, grape seed oil is from grape seeds.

Grapeseed oil will reach higher temperatures and have a different flavour. It is safe to heat to over around 210 celcius, so is great for deep frying and won't smoke or ignite at these temperatures. IT is also good for stir frying, tasting a little nutty.

Grapeseed oil is also good for dressings like olive oil, and can be used as a massage oil, and seems to help heal sunburn too.
