DESCRIPTION

Palm Kernel Oil (Unhydrogenated) is a fat obtained from the kernel of the fruit of the oil palm Elaeis guineensis Jacq. (Fam. Arecaceae) by mechanical expression or solvent extraction. It is refined, bleached, and deodorized to substantially remove free fatty acids, phospholipids, color, odor and flavor components, and miscellaneous other non-oil materials. Like coconut oil, it has a more abrupt melting range than other fats and oils.
