Some foods are marked with vegetable oil as ingredients. Does this vegetable oil refer to soybean oil and peanut oil?

    Everyone's usual reaction is soybean oil, peanut oil, rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, etc., kindhearted people may also think of olive oil, right? However, don’t forget that there are many vegetable oils, such as palm oil, coconut oil, coconut kernel oil... Even the trench oil is also a vegetable oil! Why didn't the manufacturer write the specific vegetable oil name? They do not write the names of specific vegetable oils, only "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.
