Crisco used to be made out of cottonseed oil but I think the lower price of soybean oil changed that. I think its still used in processed foods. As a by-product of growing cotton it's not really an oil crop but I think most cottonseed oil finds its way into our food supply.
I recently read that the next step in GMO crops is nitrogen fixing. So the nextgen of GMO crops will not only require 90% less pesticides, they will also require 90% less fertilizer.
