Definitely not.
They aren't advocating actual rape, so I don't see where any offense can be taken.

The band Ministry released an album called "The Land of Rape & Honey" in 1988 (from Wikipedia entry):
"The album title comes from the slogan of Tisdale, Saskatchewan, whose motto is "The Land of Rape and Honey", the local economy being based on the agricultural products rapeseed and honey.[5] The band chose the name after seeing the slogan on a souvenir mug."

According to the article, rape seed is not significant anymore so maybe time to refresh.
However, if it was still the lifeblood that it once was, then let it stay and to those offended, sorry.

I'd change it to Canola and Honey.

Nothing on the Internet is so serious it can't be laughed at, and nothing is as laughable as people who think otherwise.

Is it that hard to spell the word "Seed"?
