The leader in zero-trans frying oil.

What Are Trans Fatty Acids?What Are Trans Fatty Acids?

• The name refers to a type of double bond that occurs in fatty acids

• Some TFA’s occur naturally (i.e. animal fats)

• Treating liquid oils with hydrogen (hydrogenation) creates TFA’s

– Fully hydrogenated oil does not contain TFA’s

– Partially hydrogenated oil does contain TFA’s

• What are the benefits of hydrogenation?

– Improved fry life

– Extended shelf life

– Flavor stability

– Improved product performance

• TFA’s tend to raise total blood cholesterol levels

• Possible correlation between TFA’s and elevated LDL (bad) cholesterol but reduced HDL (good) cholesterol

• Some studies have established a possible link between TFA’s and the risk of heart disease

• Trans fat must now be listed on nutrition labels; as a result, consumer awareness of trans fat is increasing

• Local governments are moving to ban trans fat in foodservice operations (NYC)

What Is The Concern With What Is The Concern With TFA’s?TFA’s?

What Can Replace Hydrogenated What Can Replace Hydrogenated Oils?Oils?

• Identity preserved (IP) oils – new breeds developed by seed companies to enhance oil performance– High oleic sunflower oil

– Mid oleic sunflower oil

– High oleic canola oil

– Low linolenic soybean oil

• Existing RBD oils, specially formulated to:– Enhance fry life

– Improve flavor

Stratas has pursued both options to develop a portfolio of high quality zero-

trans oil products.

How Can Stratas Oils Lower My How Can Stratas Oils Lower My Costs?Costs?

• Ultra Purification

– Patented process unique to Stratas frying oils

– Removes impurities that cause oil to turn dark

– Extends the fry life of the oil

• Trace Metal Reduction (TMR)

– Removes pro-oxidant metals

– Slows oxidation, a process which causes oil breakdown and off flavors

• Multiple Source Oil Options

– Provides options during chaotic oil market fluctuations

– Advance testing enables switching among approved Stratas oils to take advantage of market swings

– Many competitors are limited to 1 or 2 source oils

Depends on your definition of “cheaper”. Stratas frying oils may cost more per case, but the extended fry life means you pay less per day – saving you money in the long run.

Fewer oil changes also lowers your labor costs, and reduces the amount of used oil and packaging you discard.

Monounsaturated fat has the unique benefit of raising the “good cholesterol” (HDL) while lowering the “bad cholesterol” (LDL).

A molecule of monounsaturated fat has a single “double bond”. Double bonds are the weak link in a frying oil, since this is where oxidation occurs…

. . . Monounsaturated fat balances the need for frying stability with concerns about cholesterol.

The key for zero-trans frying is to find an oil that is composed primarily of monounsaturated fat . . .

. . . High oleic sunflower oil is clearly the best choice for frying.
