So, what is con grasa vegetal?
"Con grasa vegetal" is a food ingredient that refers to the addition of vegetable fats or oils to a product. These fats are derived from plant sources, such as palm, coconut, or sunflower oil, and are often used as a substitute for animal-based fats like butter or lard. Vegetal fats provide texture, flavor, and stability to a wide range of foods, including baked goods, snacks, and processed meats. They are also considered a healthier alternative to animal fats due to their lower saturated fat content. "Con grasa vegetal" is a common ingredient in many packaged foods and can be found listed on ingredient labels.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
