What it is

Palm and sunflower oils are fats derived from plants. Palm oil comes from the fruit of oil palm trees, while sunflower oil is pressed from sunflower seeds. These oils are often blended to achieve specific textures and flavor profiles in food products.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use palm and sunflower oil blends as cooking oils and as ingredients in processed foods. They contribute to the texture, mouthfeel, and shelf life of products like baked goods, confectionery, and snacks.

Health notes

Palm and sunflower oil blends are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are sources of fatty acids, including saturated and unsaturated fats. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated fats and oils, but specific evaluations for blended oils like this may vary. Research on the health effects of dietary fats is ongoing, with a focus on their impact on cardiovascular health.

Allergen info

Neither palm oil nor sunflower oil are derived from the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
