It worked for me about 10 years ago. I researched lice life cycle and used treatment length appropriate, including a little extra for any little critters possibly hiding. I applied the crisco on my entire head and hair. Watched a couple of TV programs and then combed crisco out of my hair removing as much as possible. Then I shampooed. Did this daily. Combing out first treatment resulted in finding 26 lice and up to that point didn't even know I had them. When I first discovered one, I began treatment immediately. BTW Used generic vegetable shortening. Hope this helps
Would an ice cube sink or float in corn oil?
The ice will float. It is less dense than the corn oil. But as the ice melts, the water, which is more dense than the corn oil, will find its way to the bottom of the glass. That's with the oil at room temperature.
If the oil is hot, the ice cube will melt quickly. And if it is so hot the water vaporizes, it will cause steam bubbles that snap and pop and spray hot oil all over. Very dangerous.
Can you still use expired palm oil 1 year expired?
Is it an expiration date of a best before date? Best before dates have BB next to them usually.
If it's a best before date, then it's fne and dandy, but if it's an expiration date then probably not good.
Does Taco Bell use peanut oil?
I checked their nutrition guide and their list of ingredients of their foods, they use vegetable oils in their products.
Is Vegetable Oil homogeneous pure or heterogeneous?
Off the shelf vegetable oil is usually made up of several separate oil compounds and thus it is a homogeneous mixture.
However, if it was a chemically pure oil containing just one oil compound it would not be a homogeneous mixture.
The flash point is the temperature at which a liquid gives off an ignitable vapor. It is NOT the smoke point, nor the ignition point. Unrefined peanut oil has a smoke point (temperature at which it begins to break down, give off smoke) of 320 degrees Fahrenheit, while refined peanut oil has a smoke point of 448 degrees Fahrenheit. The ignition point of both oils is 700 degrees Fahrenheit, and the flash point 600 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is a good sub for vegetable oil?
Any edible vegetable oil will do depending on your taste. Olive oil is commonly used.
Is there any fat in vegetable oil?
Vegetable oil usually is made from the seeds of a vegetable because that is the part that contains the most oil substance. Oil holds twice as much energy as carbohydrates. The oil is obtained by mechanical, machinery and/or chemical means.
To make it into fat (solid at room temperature) the oil needs to be processed in a way.
Can animals eat vegetable oil?
There should not be any animal fats in vegetable oil, as that is exactly what it is: vegetable oil.
How much fat is in sunflower oil?
Heyyaa x
Sunflower oil contains predominantly linoleic acid in triglyceride form. The British Pharmacopoeia lists the following profile:[1]
- Palmitic acid : 4 - 9%,
- Stearic acid : 1 - 7%,
- Oleic acid : 14 - 40%,
- Linoleic acid : 48 - 74%.
There are several types of sunflower oils produced, such as high linoleic, high oleic and mid oleic. High linoleic sunflower oil typically has at least 69% linoleic acid. High oleic sunflower oil has at least 82% oleic acid. Variation in unsaturated fatty acids profile is strongly influenced by both genetics and climate.
Diet and cardiovascular benefits
Sunflower oil is high in the essential vitamin E and low in saturated fat. The two most common types of sunflower oil are linoleic and high oleic. Linoleic sunflower oil is a common cooking oil that has high levels of the essential fatty acids called polyunsaturated fat. It is also known for having a clean taste and low levels of trans fat. High oleic sunflower oils are classified as having monounsaturated levels of 80% and above. Newer versions of sunflower oil have been developed as a hybrid containing linoleic acid. They have monounsaturated levels lower than other oleic sunflower oils. The hybrid oil also has lower saturated fat levels than linoleic sunflower oil.[4] Sunflower oil of any kind has been shown to have cardiovascular benefits as well. Diets combined with a low fat content and high levels of oleic acid have been suggested to lower cholesterol which, in turn, results in a smaller risk of heart disease.[5] Sunflower oils fit this criteria. Studies of adults suggested that a balanced diet in which small quantities of saturated fats are replaced with sunflower oil has detectable cholesterol-reducing benefits. Research suggests that lower cholesterol levels can be caused by balances of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids.
Can cooking oil be used in place of vegetable oil for baking?
I'm not sure what kind of cooking oil you have but most are interchangeable for baking. You just want to make sure you are using a corn or vegetable oil. When you get into olive or grapeseed oils the flavor is more pronounced and they should not be used.
Refined, Bleached & Deodorised (RBDPO) Slip Melting Point = 33-39 degrees C (Testing Method = AOCS Cc 3-25)
How much does the Crisco vegetable oil cost?
The price will vary depending on the container size, store and any promotions currently going. Generally, in the US, the price is $3-$4 for a 24-32 ounce container.
How do you make perfume out of flower petals and vegetable oil?
Well, the only way I know how to make perfume are using oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, all of the other citrus fruits.
1. Take some distilled or spring water, orange, lemon, lime, or grapefruit (or all at once!) peels.
2. Get a jar big enough to hold the peels. Put the peels in the jar and pour water over it.
3. Shake it up for a little bit until you get the right smell that you want. If it's too strong, add some more water. If you can't really smell the citrus part, add some more peels.
4. When it's the right smell, take the peels out and pour the liquid inside an empty spray bottle.
And there you have your fresh fruit perfume (it's called citrus perfume)!
Manufacturers make vegetable oils solid or semisolid at room temperature by?
The process called "hydrogenation" adds chemical bonds within the oil to decrease the number of double carbon bonds, changing the fat from unsaturated (fewer hydrogen bonds) to saturated (more hydrogen bonds).
Saturated fats tend to be solids.
Does the Cambodia produce palm oil?
Yes, palm oil plantations began in the late 60's in the Philippines
What happens when you mix vegetable oil and turpentine?
The reaction is called emulsification. The soap breaks up the fat into smaller "pieces". It is similar to what happens in your small intestines when bile salts are added to the chyme. The bile salts help break down the fats in food so that they are small enough to be absorbed by the body.
How many gallons there are in 1 metric ton of vegetable oil?
The density of cooking oil varies by type but is about 0.92 kilograms per liter. If you calculate the reciprocal of that, you get 1.08696 liters per kilogram. You can now easily use Google to convert that to gallons per tonne (metric ton). Just type 1.08696 liters per kilogram in gallons per tonne in the Google search box. You should get 287.14 US gallons per tonne.
Does cookout the restaurant use peanut oil to cook their food?
According to their website, it does not appear that they do. There is an allergen section on the menu list, and the "Peanut" allergen column does not have any menu items checked. Also, there is a notice on there to New York residents stating that they use a "cooking oil that has 0g trans fat per serving" (it is not identified) and that in the "rest of the US" they use soybean oil.
What countries in Southeast Asia produce palm oil?
I am nearly certain the the Philippines is the top producer/exporter. To your question - they all do.
