What it is

Hydrogenated canola is a type of vegetable oil made from canola seeds. The process of hydrogenation adds hydrogen to the oil, which makes it more solid at room temperature and increases its shelf life.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use hydrogenated canola oil as a fat source in baked goods and other processed foods. Its solid form helps improve texture and stability in products like cookies, pastries, and ice cream.

Health notes

Hydrogenated canola oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of trans fats, although the amount can vary depending on the degree of hydrogenation. Major health organizations recommend limiting trans fat intake. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated it.

Allergen info

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