Does this measure trans fat?
No. The matcher only records that the ingredient list used a hydrogenated vegetable-oil phrase. Nutrition numbers are not inferred.
Seed oils
Hydrogenated vegetable oil
Vegetable oil the label describes as hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated, source still unnamed.
Matches personal ingredient preferences based on label evidence; not medical, allergy, or dietary safety advice
What the label is naming
Partially hydrogenated and hydrogenated vegetable oils are seed-oil phrases with a processing word attached. When the label instead says hydrogenated soybean oil, the soybean oil entry takes the longer match so the explanation names the seed. This entry is the unnamed version.
Where it hides
Older peanut-butter spreads, frosting, pie crusts, and shelf-stable cookies. Fully hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated both match. The catalog does not estimate trans fat from the word.
