Why it's used
Safflower oil is commonly used as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in salad dressings, baked goods, and snack foods. Manufacturers use it for its neutral taste and its ability to add moisture and richness to products. It is often chosen for its high smoke point, making it suitable for frying.
