Is the allergen some people are sensitive to present in peanut oil?  If so, 
then canola oil is not only better for being an oil that might have been 
used in period, but it leaves you out of the allergic reaction by unknowing

who DOES ask the cook in advance in order to make informed choices, was not 
fully informed and had to make a sudden exit from feast to hospital last
