Transition® Sunflower Oil

1 of 3 products in this brand
Transition® Sunflower Oil is formulated with mid-oleic cultivars to raise the monounsaturated fatty acid levels to those seen in olive and canola oil. It’s high smoke point allows it to be used as a deep-frying medium and it imparts a light, neutral taste to cooked foods. Antioxidants and antifoam agents are added to extend shelf life. Sunflower oil by nature offers a non-GMO alternative to soybean and canola oil as there are no commercially grown GMO equivalents of sunflowers.
