Well OK, corn oil is used in hand lotion, what does that prove.

I have never seen a Fleischmann's corn oil per se, but have seen
Fleischmann's corn oil MARGARINE.

Go to the grocery, look at various different branded bottles of corn oil
held side by side. They are all generally a golden shade, but the colors
will differ from brand to brand. This makes sense because the colors come
from the natural coloration of the corn which varies from white to a deep
yellow.

Mazola is image conscious; it does not want different bottles of Mazola on
the same shelf that look different colors. Any more than Coke or Pepsi
coming in varying shades of brown.
