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 are vegetable oils that are refined and processed for use in food.

Why it's used

These oils are widely used in baking and processed foods due to their neutral flavor and ability to improve texture and shelf life. They act as a fat or oil, providing moisture and tenderness in products like cakes, cookies, and baked goods.

Health notes

Canola oil and soybean oil are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are common sources of unsaturated fats, including omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated these oils, and they are considered safe when consumed in typical amounts as part of a balanced diet. Some research suggests potential benefits from unsaturated fats, while other studies explore the effects of highly processed vegetable oils.

Allergen info

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