What it is
Soybean peanut oil is a blend of oils derived from soybeans and peanuts. Both soybeans and peanuts are legumes, not tree nuts. The oils are extracted from the seeds of the soybean plant and the kernels of the peanut plant, then refined for use in food.
Why it's used
This oil blend is used for its neutral flavor and moderate smoke point, making it suitable for frying, sautéing, and as an ingredient in dressings and baked goods. Manufacturers use it as a cooking oil and a source of fat in various processed foods.
Health notes
Soybean oil and peanut oil are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are common sources of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated these oils, and they are widely consumed. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption levels.
