CHESTERTON, Mo. — A soybean marketing group hopes that a new healthier type of soybean oil designed by Missouri University researchers will boost soybean sales.
Most soybean oil is sold in U.S. grocery stores as vegetable oil and the United Soybean Board’s Jim Stillman says that it’s steadily lost its percentage of American cooking oil sales over the years to palm and olive oil. The new soybean oil, which will be marketed under a new name, comes from a healthier bean and has a formulation that has healthier fats, he said.
