What it is

RBD vegetable soybean oil is a refined, bleached, and deodorized oil derived from soybeans. The process removes impurities, color, and odor, resulting in a neutral-tasting oil. It is a common cooking oil produced in the United States and globally.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use RBD vegetable soybean oil as a cooking oil and a source of fat in many processed foods. Its neutral flavor and liquid state at room temperature make it versatile for baking, frying, and as an ingredient in dressings and sauces.

Health notes

RBD vegetable soybean oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated soybean oil. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Soybean oil is derived from soybeans, which are one of the FDA's nine major allergens. However, highly refined soybean oil is often considered non-allergenic by regulatory bodies due to the removal of allergenic proteins during processing. It does not contain gluten.
