I’m Rohit. What are hydrogenated oils and why do experts say to avoid them?

#Ingredients

I see “partially hydrogenated oil” on many snack packs. Is it the same as trans fat?

      Exactly — hydrogenated oils are trans fats that improve crispiness but harm heart health. FactsScan flags them immediately and recommends healthier oils like sunflower or mustard instead.
