The FryTest.com zero trans fat cooking oil contest

 

 

 

LIST OF ZERO TRANS FAT COOKING OILS
AND CONTEST RESULTS

To provide you with the best information possible, we have attempted to list all zero trans fat cooking oils on the market. Except for donut oils, we have not listed any oil containing more than 30% saturated fat. Only vegetable oils are listed.

A company name in red means the company has entered at least one oil in the contest. No company may advertise a cooking oil on this website unless it has entered at least one oil in the contest.

A leading brand of partially hydrogenated soybean oil was tested in the first round as a control. Click here for the results of the testing of the partially hydrogenated soybean oil.
