What it is
Vegetable oil is a fat extracted from plants. Common sources include soybeans, corn, canola, and sunflowers. The oil is typically refined to remove impurities and create a stable product for cooking and food manufacturing.
Why it's used
Vegetable oils are used in a wide variety of processed foods as a source of fat, to improve texture, and to extend shelf life. They are common in baked goods like cookies and cakes, as well as in fried foods, dressings, and sauces.
Health notes
Vegetable oils are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They provide essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins. While generally healthy in moderation, high intake of certain types of fats, like saturated and trans fats, has been linked to increased risk of heart disease. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various fats and oils.
Allergen info
Vegetable oils are not typically considered major allergens. However, oils derived from soy or tree nuts may be a concern for individuals with specific allergies to those sources. Gluten is not present in pure vegetable oils.
