What kind of oil is "vegetable oil"? It is not that this blog wants to play word games with everyone, but manufacturers want to play word games with everyone!

　　As trans fatty acids become everyone''s shout Hit the street mouse, hydrogenated oil containing trans fatty acids (Of course, in the actual product ingredients list, its name is many, such as "edible vegetable oil", "refined vegetable oil", "vegetable oil", "hydrogenated vegetable oil" , "Shortening", "vegetable cream") are widely criticized. So there are "smart" vendors that smell business opportunities.

　　 has been reported by netizens, He saw a trans-fatty acid content of 0 on a food label he saw in the supermarket, but the ingredient list still wrote "vegetable oil". If the product does not lie, is there any problem? I tell you that you have to use reverse thinking to jump out of the trap set by the manufacturer, otherwise you will always be in a weak position. How to reverse thinking?

　　 is very simple, this product''s ingredients list only writes "vegetable oil", but does not write the name of the specific oil. What kind of oil is vegetable oil? Everyone''s usual reaction is soybean oil, peanut oil, rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, etc. If you are kind, you might think of olive oil, right? But, don''t forget, there are many vegetable oils , Such as palm oil, coconut oil, coconut kernel oil... and even gutter oil is a vegetable oil! Why didn’t the manufacturer write the name of the specific vegetable oil? You shouldn’t think they forgot that they are too stupid By the way, manufacturers can be ten times smarter than consumers! They do not write the name of specific vegetable oils, but only write "vegetable oil" in general. The most likely reason is that the fats they actually use are vegetable oils that are worse than hydrogenated oils or as bad as hydrogenated oils, such as palm oil, coconut oil, and coconut kernel oil. In this case, they certainly don’t want consumers to know the truth.

　　 There is also a small possibility that the manufacturer uses a mixture of various vegetable oils (mainly for better taste and lower cost), so that they themselves are not sure about this "vegetable oil" "What kind of oil is it?" In this case, you must not naively think that manufacturers will use soybean oil, peanut oil, olive oil to mix into "vegetable oil." I tell you, as long as they don’t use drain oil (what kind of vegetable oil is drain oil? Is it soybean drain oil? Peanut drain oil? Olive drain oil? Certainly not clear, so drain oil is a typical mixed fat), consumers will It’s time to burn high fragrance! If they don’t do well, the mixed fats they use are palm oil, coconut oil, coconut kernel oil and other low-quality vegetable oils!

　　 There is also a theory that exists in practice but not in practice The possibility is too high, that is, the manufacturer actually uses good oil, peanut oil, or soybean oil, and olive oil are not uniform, but because of negligence, or did not expect consumers to care about what oil is used (really annoying, This gang of consumers!), so it''s so confusing, so-so, sloppy, sloppy...who is written as "vegetable oil".

　　All in all, those high-profile manufacturers with a "trans fatty acid content of 0" can be said to be well-intentioned, but the ingredients list only writes "vegetable oil", not specific which kind of vegetable oil, which is obviously a sloppy eye . It may really not use hydrogenated oils, but vegetable oils of lower quality or as low as hydrogenated oils are used. This possibility is 99.9999999999999%!
