What it is

Soybean oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the soybean plant. It is one of the most widely used oils in the United States. The oil is typically refined, bleached, and deodorized before being used in food products.

Why it's used

Soybean oil is used as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in many processed foods. Its neutral flavor and versatility make it suitable for frying, baking, and as a base for salad dressings and sauces. It also functions as an emulsifier and texturizer in products like margarine and baked goods.

Health notes

Soybean oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, including omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. While these fats are considered essential, the typical American diet often contains a high ratio of omega-6 to omega-3, which some research suggests may be linked to inflammation. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated soybean oil. Yeast is also generally recognized as safe by the FDA.

Allergen info

Soybean oil is derived from soybeans, which are one of the nine FDA major allergens. Gluten is not typically present in soybean oil or yeast.
