What it is

Vegetable oil is a fat extracted from plants. It can be made from various sources like soybeans, corn, canola, or olives. The oil is typically refined to remove impurities and give it a neutral flavor and color.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use vegetable oil as a cooking medium, a base for dressings and sauces, and as an ingredient in baked goods and processed foods. Its neutral flavor and liquid state at room temperature make it versatile for many applications.

Health notes

Vegetable oils are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are a source of calories and can contain beneficial unsaturated fats. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated vegetable oils. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Vegetable oils are not typically considered major allergens. However, some individuals may have sensitivities to specific oils, such as soy or peanut oil, depending on their processing and potential for cross-contamination.
