Fat/Oil Content

Fat/oil is an essential part of our diet, being a main source of energy. However, when eaten in large amounts, all fats, including healthy fats, can contribute to weight gain.

On the labels, American Garden declared soya bean and/or canola oil, Fun Foods refined soya bean oil, and Cremica and Del Monte vegetable oil. Cremica and Delmonte did not specify the type of oil used, which means they are not transparent in declaration.

There are different types of fats/oils, with some healthier than others. Fats/oils are composed of saturated fat (saturated fatty acids), unsaturated fats (unsaturated fatty acids), trans fat (trans-fatty acids) and cholesterol.
