Full taste. Zero trans fat.

Vistive® Gold is unlike any other cooking oil. It is low in polyunsaturated fats and high in monounsaturated fats, resulting in increased stability. The extra stability during cooking eliminates the need to hydrogenate the oil, which also eliminates trans fats. Vistive Gold will allow you to cost-effectively eliminate trans fats and significantly lower saturated fat content in foods without sacrificing flavor quality. In fact, frying tests done with chicken and French fries have shown no change in taste or texture while delivering all the benefits of an improved cooking oil, including reduced saturated fat and zero trans fat. Whether used alone, or in combination with other oils, Vistive Gold has the flexibility to optimize cost functionality and taste.

Vistive® Gold soybeans have advanced to Phase IV (pre-launch), the final step within the R&D pipeline. Monsanto has recently completed submissions to the USDA and FDA in support of the trait. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has issued a positive response letter to Monsanto’s Generally Recognized as Safe notification. The FDA’s letter supports the use of Vistive® Gold under its intended uses.
