Gold Coin Refined Cottonseed Oil
Cottonseed Oil enhances, rather than masks, the fresh natural flavor of foods. Its neutral taste makes it perfect for frying seafood, snack foods and Oriental foods, especially stir-fry. In snack foods, where oil becomes part of the product, Cottonseed Oil is recognized as being superior because of its low flavor reversion especially when used at high temperatures. And, towards the end of its useful life, Cottonseed Oil won't produce objectionable flavors as some oils do.
Another of Cottonseed Oil's benefits is the high level of antioxidants (Vitamin E) that contribute to its long life in the cooker or on the shelf. Studies show that these natural antioxidants are retained at high levels in fried products, preserving their freshness and creating longer shelf life.

The cottonseed itself is very similar to other oilseeds such as sunflower seed, having an oil bearing kernel surrounded by a hard outer hull. The oil is extracted from the kernel. Like all vegetable oils, Cottonseed Oil is cholesterol free.
