Cafeteria News…Did You Know…?

… That we use 100% premium Soybean Oil for all of our cooking.  Why soybean oil?  For several reasons: 1) It contains 0% Trans fats, the kinds of fat that are the worst for you.   2) It has 8% Omega 3 Fatty Acid, a number even higher to that which is in premium Canola oil.  Omega 3 fatty acids are an essential part of our diet and very important for proper brain and muscle functioning.  3) It has a high smoke point, which means it can be heated to high temperatures without breaking down, and is therefore perfect for stir frying, etc.  4) It is made locally allowing us to benefit in two ways a) decreasing our cost and as compared to using an imported item, and b) reducing our carbon footprint on the environment.  5) Last, when compared in nutritional value to more well known imported oils such as Canola or Safflower oil, Soybean oil ranks right alongside them.  Enjoy.
