What it is

Palm corn oil is a blend of palm oil and corn oil, both of which are vegetable oils. Palm oil comes from the fruit of oil palm trees, while corn oil is extracted from the germ of corn kernels. These oils are often refined and blended to achieve specific flavor, texture, and stability characteristics for food manufacturing.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use palm corn oil as a cooking oil and a source of fat in processed foods. Its neutral flavor and semi-solid texture at room temperature make it suitable for baked goods, snacks, and fried products. It can also contribute to the mouthfeel and shelf-life of various food items.

Health notes

Palm corn oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Both palm oil and corn oil are sources of fatty acids. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) have evaluated palm oil and corn oil. Evidence on the health effects of saturated fats, like those found in palm oil, is mixed and subject to ongoing research.

Allergen info

Palm corn oil is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
