Fortune Refined Soyabean Oil — ENGINEERED
Munch or Dump rates Fortune Refined Soyabean Oil by fortune ENGINEERED — score 30/90.
A heavily refined, bleached and deodorized seed oil propped up by the synthetic preservative TBHQ and a sprinkle of added vitamins. The 'Soya Health' name and heart-health claims oversell a high omega-6 industrial oil.
Why this verdict
- Industrially refined, bleached and deodorized seed oil, far from a whole food
- Preserved with TBHQ (E-319), a synthetic petroleum-derived antioxidant
- Very high in omega-6 PUFA, skewing an already omega-6-heavy diet
- Added vitamins A and D are fortification, not a health upgrade
Ingredients (4)
- Refined Soyabean Oil (moderate) — Refined seed oil base of the filling; high in omega-6.
- TBHQ (E-319) (concerning) — Tertiary butylhydroquinone, a synthetic petroleum-derived preservative added to stop the oil going rancid; flagged by some for safety at higher intakes.

- vitamin D (safe) — Added vitamin that helps the body absorb calcium and build strong bones.
