Sunflower Oil is a highly polyunsaturated oil obtained from sunflower seeds. There are two types of sunflower grown: an oilseed type used as a vegetable oil, and a nonoilseed type used for human food and bird seed. The composition of sunflower oil varies according to location and growing temperature. In general, sunflowers grown above the 39th parallel are high in linoleic acid and those grown below are high in oleic acid. The high linoleic variety is used for margarine and salad oil, while the high oleic variety is used in frying applications. This bland-flavored oil has a smoke point of 485–490°f (252–254°c) which gives it utility in baking, cooking, and frying foods. It is also used as a salad oil. In the hydrogenated form, it is used in margarine and shortenings.
