Once-Refined Cottonseed Salad Oil Base from Mexico
Cottonseed oil refined solely through a caustic wash to neutralize and degum, used as a base for producing higher-grade salad oils. It lacks bleaching or deodorization, so it is classified as other cotton-seed oil and fractions, not chemically modified.
