Role in food
Cottonseed oil is a versatile cooking oil used in a variety of processed foods. …

What it is

Cottonseed oil is extracted from the seeds of cotton plants. After the cotton fibers are removed, the seeds are cleaned, cracked, and heated before the oil is pressed out. The crude oil is then refined to remove impurities, resulting in a neutral-flavored oil.

Why it's used

Cottonseed oil is a versatile cooking oil used in a variety of processed foods. It's often used for frying, baking, and in salad dressings due to its neutral flavor and relatively high smoke point. You can find it in products like cookies, crackers, and some nut butters.

Health notes

Cottonseed oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is primarily composed of unsaturated fats, including polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. Like other vegetable oils, it can be part of a balanced diet. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated cottonseed oil.

Allergen info

Cottonseed is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
