Taste - this is obvious as olive oil has flavour where vegetable oils are bland. I personally prefer it in my salad dressing. Nutrition - olive oil has more monounsaturated fat. It also has no cholestrol. Production - vegetable oil is processed in industrial production using petroleum based solvents to extract it.

Is palm oil the same thing as 100 percent vegetable oil?
Palm oil is an edible vegetable oil derived from the fruit of oil palm trees that is widely used in the food industry as a cooking oil. Palm oil, which is high in saturated fats, vitamins, and antioxidants, is used in a variety of industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, and biofuels.
The palm oil market's growth is influenced by a variety of market emotions and supply-demand dynamics. Because palm oil accounts for the biggest volume of vegetable oil sold globally, and new laws and regulations are being implemented against the backdrop of increased awareness of irresponsible plantation practises, the palm oil market is anticipated to see high price volatility. Palm planters are projected to be the most impacted stakeholders, since declining export prospects and rising minimum wage policies will damage their profit margins.
Because palm oil is the most frequently used vegetable oil, irresponsible farming and processing practises have previously harmed environmental integrity. Palm oil stakeholders are working to build a transparent and sustainable supply chain in the palm oil sector in order to mitigate the damage done and ensure future production sustainability.
