Hello everyone,

 

I am vetting a potential supplier and saw that the ingredient statement has "Refined Palmolein Oil" as the frying oil used for the product.

 

Does anyone know more in-depth differences between Palm Oil and Refined Palmolein Oil? I am familiar with Palm Oil, but when I read "Refined Palmolein Oil" in an ingredient statement, I interpret it as something different.

 

I also wanted to rule out that the difference could be the way the specification was translated as the product would be coming from India.

 

If they are in fact different, are there RSPO considerations for Refined Palmolein Oil? 

 

Any insight would be helpful. 

 

Thanks,
