- Sustainability enthusiasts are making cooking oil from a resource native to Pennsylvania, a small but growing homegrown alternative to imported cooking oils.
- Olive, canola and palm oils — the three imported staples the source says typically fill grocery store aisles and home kitchens — are the products the Pennsylvania-made oil is being developed to replace.
Why it matters: Pennsylvania cooks and the small sustainability network behind the oil gain a local substitute for three named imported staples — olive, canola and palm — that the source says fill grocery store aisles and home kitchens. The practical result: a native Pennsylvania resource becomes cooking oil, with the alternative still small but growing.
