Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is an edible oil extracted from the kernel or meat of mature coconuts harvested from the coconut palm. It has the highest level of saturated fatty acids of any vegetable oil. Because of its high saturated fat content, it is slow to oxidize and, thus, resistant to rancidification.Gateway Coconut Oil is a highly refined, bleached, and deodorized (RBD) coconut oil. Gateway Coconut Oil is used in the food industry as a popping and topping oil for popcorn in movie theaters and concessions and as an oil for roasting nuts. It’s commonly used in confectionery applications as a center fat, as an ice cream bar coating, and as an ingredient in frozen whipped toppings, coffee whiteners, and baby food. It is widely used in non-food applications in personal care products, lauric fatty acid products, and soap making.
