    This is a compensated campaign in collaboration with Soy Connection by United Soybean Board and Latina Bloggers Connect. As always, thank you for reading and supporting brands with which I work, as it helps support My Colombian Recipes.

    I’ve partnered with Soy Connection by United Soybean Board for this post to showcase the benefits of soybean oil. Did you know that most vegetable oil is made of 100% U.S. grown soybean oil? I didn’ t know, until I was asked to join this campaign. Just check the ingredients on the label to verify.

    We use a lot of soybean oil to fry our appetizers (antojitos) in Colombia and other Latin countries. My grandmother always had this oil in the pantry to cook her empanadas, buñuelos, papas rellenas and many other traditional Colombian dishes, and my mom and I are no different.

    Soybean oil offers many benefits and has a neutral flavor that helps me create some of my favorite traditional Colombian dishes without overpowering the dish. It also has a high smoke point, making it perfect to make our favorite fritos (fried food).
    According to Soy Connection: Soybean oil contains 0g trans fats per serving and serves as a principal source of omega‐3s, which can help reduce blood pressure and prevent heart disease. It is also a great source of vitamin E, which prevents cell damage that may lead to diseases such as cancer and heart disease, and contains unsaturated fats, which when replacing saturated fats, may lower cholesterol levels.

      Unfortunately, the US passion for quoting "per serving size" gives very misleading figures. This shows a serving size of 14gm. Saturated fats (the ones that are not so good for you) it shows 2gm and then equates this to just 10% (having the percentage makes comparison of types and brands practicable and evens out differences in serving size). HOWEVER, 2 gm in 14 gm is not 10% ,it is over 14% - nearly one and a half times as much, so those of you who are, and the rest of us who should be, watching their saturated fats intake are getting over 40% more saturated fat than the bottle label leads you to believe.

      The US population would be far better served by going onto the European way of showing these things by working with a standard 100ml, then for every ml of a constituent you would increase by one percent, thus making product comparison more accurate.
