Palm Soybean Canola Oil

This ingredient is a blend of oils derived from palm fruit, soybeans, and canola seeds. These plants are grown for their oil-rich seeds and fruits, which are then processed to extract the oil. The blending of these oils creates a specific fat profile and texture preferred by food manufacturers.

This oil blend is used as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in processed foods. It provides a neutral flavor and a stable texture, making it suitable for a wide range of products like snacks, baked goods, and fried foods.

Palm soybean canola oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Like other fats and oils, it provides calories and essential fatty acids. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various vegetable oils, including components of this blend, and have not set specific numeric limits for them. Concerns about saturated fat content in palm oil are sometimes raised, but the overall health impact depends on the total diet.
