Great Value Vegetable Oil, 48 fl oz — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates Great Value Vegetable Oil, 48 fl oz by Great Value OKAY — score 60/90.

One ingredient: refined soybean oil, which is what 'vegetable oil' has always quietly meant. It's a clean, functional cooking fat — just an industrial, omega-6-heavy one. Use it for frying; don't mistake it for olive oil.

Why this verdict

• Single ingredient — 100% soybean oil, no blends, no additives, no preservatives
• Refined, bleached, and deodorized industrial oil — a neutral culinary ingredient, not a health food
• Heavily skewed to omega-6 polyunsaturated fat; fine in moderation but worth balancing with olive oil elsewhere in the diet
• Genuinely balanced verdict: nothing engineered or hidden, but nothing nutritious either — it's cheap cooking fat doing a cooking-fat job

• Soybean Oil (moderate) — Refined seed oil, listed twice — cheap fat carrying the dough and brownie chunks.
