My only Scrabble-related memory as a kid was playing the word "rape" because I'd seen it online but didn't know what it meant. Things got a bit awkward.

On that day, you heard all about the wonders of canola

Unrelated but, in Pokemon Scarlet/Violet the second gym leader is named after brassica and rapeseed in particular. I always thought the name origin was weird. I would've gone with a cabbage related name. Especially cause he looks like a cabbage more than a rapeseed plant.

I can't disagree, but I suppose he surrounds himself with olive and sunflower Pokemon enough to basically be an oil connoisseur.
