What it is

Soybean oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the soybean plant. It is one of the most widely used cooking oils in the United States. The oil is typically refined, bleached, and deodorized before being used in food products.

Why it's used

Soybean oil is used as a cooking oil, a salad dressing ingredient, and a shortening in baked goods. Its neutral flavor and relatively low cost make it a versatile ingredient for food manufacturers. It is often found in processed foods like salad dressings, baked goods, and fried snacks.

Health notes

Soybean oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, which are considered healthier fats when consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated soybean oil. Evidence on the health effects of soybean oil consumption is mixed, with some studies suggesting potential benefits and others raising concerns about inflammation and other health issues.

Allergen info

Soybean oil is derived from soybeans, which are one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. However, highly refined soybean oil is generally considered to be non-allergenic.
