What it is

Canola oil is made from rapeseed, a plant in the mustard family. Soybean oil is made from soybeans, a type of legume. Both oils are extracted from the seeds and then refined, bleached, and deodorized for use in food.

Why it's used

These oils are widely used in processed foods because they are relatively inexpensive and have a neutral flavor. They act as a cooking oil, a base for dressings and sauces, and an ingredient in baked goods and snacks.

Health notes

Canola and soybean oils are considered safe by the FDA and are Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). They are sources of polyunsaturated fats, including omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. JECFA has evaluated these oils and set acceptable daily intakes. While generally considered healthy fats, some research has explored their effects on inflammation and heart health, with mixed findings.

Allergen info

Soybean oil is derived from soy, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Canola oil is not a major allergen. Neither contains gluten.
