Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fats and Oils Situation, Vol. 12: February 14, 1938 Soybean oil is adaptable to a wide variety of uses, but since 1934, as a result of the short supplies of other edible oils, it has been used chiefly in food products. In 1936 approximately 61 percent of the soybean oil consumed went into compounds and vegetable shortenings and 20 percent into oleomargarine and other food products. This year increased production of edible oils, together with the wide spread between the price of linseed oil and.the price of soybean oil, may cause some shift in the consumption of soybean oil from food products to paints and other drying-oil products.
