Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Just thought I'd throw in my 2¢...I've used Wilderness Family Red Palm oil and it is wonderful! I made biscuits and they were light as a feather although YELLOW! I also bought a gallon of the Red Palm oil from Mountain Rose Herbs, but haven't used it yet. Their prices were better than Wilderness Family. We have a co-op here in our small town and we're able to get a significant discount from Mountain Rose. It doesn't have to be anything official, just a few friends who want to order. Blessings, Sunny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Sunny: I don’t know about the Mountain Rose Palm Oil but I did buy some of the Wildnerness Family Red Palm Oil and I wondered why it didn’t solidify when the kitchen got cold, so I put it in the Fridge and it still stayed runny so I wrote to Dr. Fife and asked him. He said that the PO SHOULD get very hard when it is cold and what WFN’s is selling is actually a FRACTIONATED OIL, that is separated out from the RAW RED PALM OIL and this is called Palm Olein. Because it is separated it is then more like Olive Oil and much higher in Monounsaturates and much lower in the Saturated Fat that you want from this oil. So WFN’s is not selling the HEART-HEALTHY raw Palm Oil. I phone them and they admitted it and I said that they should POST that information on their site. So there you have it Sunny. The Palm Olein is not the best kind of oil, I guess you could say it is ALTERED and so no longer in it’s original natural state and I can’t think of the word right now but you get my meaning. The other Fractionated part of the Palm Oil is Palm Stearin which is white and used in Restaurants for high heat cooking and very stable. All the health benefits would be with the RAW RED PALM OIL.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Yes, I've tried them both HOWEVER this was a year ago and I didn't know about the FRACTIONATED OIL that is out there and either one of these could be those. The Palm Olein (refined and fractionated) tends to taste a whole better than the raw oil. I should phone both of them and just ask them.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 That's interesting, Bonnie. I did have my palm oil from Wilderness Family in the frig and it was really hard....so not sure if maybe they might be selling two different kinds?? I also checked my palm oil from Mountain Rose that I store in my pantry and it is in a liquid state. I'd sure like to find out WHAT I have.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 You can easily find out what you have by just calling and asking them (each company), they always have 800#s. Just call and ask them what kind of Palm Oil do you have? It is the RAW, or is it the OLEIN? They'll tell you. Like I said, if you're going to eat the Olein, you might as well just use Olive Oil.
