Health notes
Fully hydrogenated vegetable oils are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. Unlike partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs), which were a major source of artificial trans fats and are no longer GRAS since 2018, fully hydrogenated oils contain very little to no trans fat. They are primarily saturated fats. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend keeping saturated fat intake under 10% of daily calories.
Allergen info
Fully hydrogenated vegetable oils are not a major allergen themselves. However, the specific vegetable oil used (e.g., soybean oil, peanut oil) may be a major allergen, and this should be declared on the food label.
