What it is
Peanut cottonseed oil is a blend of oils derived from peanuts and cottonseeds. The seeds are typically pressed or solvent-extracted to obtain the oil, which is then refined to remove impurities and undesirable flavors. This blend combines the characteristics of both peanut and cottonseed oils.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use peanut cottonseed oil as a cooking oil and a source of fat in processed foods. Its neutral flavor and stability make it suitable for frying, baking, and as an ingredient in salad dressings, snacks, and baked goods. It can also be used in products like popcorn and ice cream.
Health notes

The WHO/IARC has not classified cottonseed oil as carcinogenic to humans. JECFA has evaluated edible oils and fats, including those derived from cottonseed, and established specifications for their quality and safety.
Allergen info
