From Guy Cox, Sydney, Australia
While camellia oil might use less land than many other oil crops, can I point out that rice bran oil requires zero land, since it is made from what is often considered a waste product – and the world isn’t going to stop eating rice. This oil is popular in many Asian countries, and in Australia, though seems to be little known in the UK and US. It has a healthy fatty acid balance, nice taste and a high smoke point. Surely it is the greenest oil(5 October, p 15)?
