vegetable oil has a higher smoke point than olive oil but olive oil has better flavor. If you're frying for a significant amount of time use vege oil, if frying for a short amt of time you can use olive. If you're in the middle you can blend olive and vege to heighten your smoke point so the olive won't burn and still get the flavor

Yes, in fact olive oil is better because it is not highly processed like canola if you use cold pressed olive oil. There is a slight taste difference (olive).

Can vegans eat olive oil?

No, canola oil comes from the seed of a weed, the rape weed. It was originally processed as a synthetic motor oil, during WWII, when petroleum based lubricants were scarce. Canola [Canada Oil] is known in Canada as LEAR Oil {low-erucic acid rapeweed oil} it is derived from the seed of a weed. Canola, Safflower, sunflower and others are seed oils and not derived from a vegetable, such as soybean or corn; or fruits like cocoa, coconut or olive oils. There are several other oils in all three above categories, most cooking oils are interchangeable in use, and fruit and seed oils often are incorrectly called vegetable oils. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I don't agree with what you said. Canola oil belongs to vegetable oil. it is made from canola oilseeds. Besides, Vegetable oil has very large scopes such as sesame oil, olive oil, palm oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, etc..
