Cargill, Minneapolis, has launched a new part to its food ingredient web site on www.cargill.com that focuses on oils and shortening. The new oils and shortening knowledge center may be found at www.cargill.com/food/oilsforhealthysolutions. It provides information for manufacturers who want to develop healthier products.

"This new knowledge center is a great source of information about fats and oils and really serves as a portal to answering questions about current issues and opinions," said Lynne Morehart, technical services manager for Cargill’s oils and shortening team. "We believe it will be a helpful tool for food manufacturers looking for solutions to achieve their nutrition, performance and cost goals."
