Fats and oils primarily consist of triglycerides, which are molecules made up of glycerol and three fatty acid chains. These fatty acids can be saturated or unsaturated, influencing the physical properties of the fat or oil, such as its state at room temperature. Additionally, fats and oils may contain small amounts of other substances, including phospholipids, sterols, and vitamins.
