Why Do Companies Use Palm Oil in Snacks?

If palm oil is so terrible for human health and causes massive environmental destruction, why do multi-billion dollar food corporations continue to pump it into almost every packaged snack on the market?

The answer is brutally simple: extreme profitability and artificial shelf life. Palm oil is the cheapest fat on the planet. It is also semi-solid at room temperature, which prevents cheap crackers and chips from melting or feeling greasy in the bag. It allows a manufacturer to leave a product on a warehouse shelf for two years without it visibly spoiling.

Corporations prioritize their profit margins; they do not care about your gut inflammation. A genuinely premium brand operates on an entirely different philosophy. We use pure desi ghee because it provides actual, biological health benefits and a spectacular flavor profile. It drastically increases our production costs, but it guarantees an uncorrupted, elite superfood.
