What it is

Yeast soybean oil is a food ingredient made by combining soybean oil with yeast. Yeast is a single-celled microorganism used in baking and fermentation. Soybean oil is a vegetable oil extracted from soybeans.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use yeast soybean oil as a source of fat and to improve the texture and mouthfeel of foods. It is commonly found in baked goods like breads and rolls, as well as snacks such as popcorn and peanuts.

Health notes

Yeast soybean oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of fat, and like all fats, it provides calories. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated soybean oil and yeast separately. Evidence on the health effects of yeast soybean oil specifically at typical consumption levels is limited.

Allergen info

Soybean oil is derived from soybeans, which are one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Yeast is not considered a major allergen.
