What it is

Soybean oil is a common vegetable oil extracted from soybeans. Hydrogenated soybean oil is produced by adding hydrogen to soybean oil, a process that makes the oil more solid at room temperature. This process can be either partial or full.

Why it's used

Soybean oil is widely used as a cooking oil and in various food products. Hydrogenated soybean oil is added to processed foods to improve texture, increase stability, and extend shelf life, commonly found in baked goods, snacks, and margarines.

Health notes

Soybean oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. Partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs), which contain artificial trans fat, are no longer considered GRAS by the FDA as of 2018. Fully hydrogenated oils (FHOs) do not contain artificial trans fat and remain GRAS. JECFA has evaluated both soybean oil and hydrogenated oils. Concerns about the health effects of artificial trans fats, particularly their link to heart disease, led to the FDA's determination regarding PHOs.

Allergen info

This ingredient is derived from soy, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
