Cottonseed oil isn’t classified as a food, even though it’s used in lots of processed fried foods.
Because of this they don’t have to comply with all sorts of laws and regulations when growing and using cottonseed oil.
It’s also one of the least healthy oils you can eat anyhow.
But it’s the cheapest oil so they use it all over the place. If the package says “one or more of these oils” bet that it’s 90%+ cottonseed if it is listed
Your entire post is full of untruths. Cottonseed oil has proven to be one of the healthiest.
