Cargill has become the first global supplier to meet WHO standards on eliminating industrially-produced trans-fatty acids (iTFA) from edible oils worldwide. Despite no legislative mandates, the company has ensured iTFA content is limited to two grams per 100 grams of fats/oils.
This achievement reflects decades of effort, with Cargill removing over 1.5 billion pounds of iTFA-containing products from the global food supply.
René Lammers of PepsiCo commends the company’s commitment, urging industry partners to join in reducing trans fats. The company has also taken steps to advance reformulation efforts, partnering with organizations to raise awareness and share expertise in iTFA reformulation.
“We’re pleased to see Cargill’s continued commitment to reduce industrially produced trans fats in all their oils, recently achieving their goal to align with the World Health Organization’s recommended standards,” says René Lammers, PepsiCo’s chief science officer.
“This move aligns with PepsiCo’s successful reduction of iTFAs in our foods to meet this same standard, and we encourage our fellow industry partners to join us in this important initiative to evolve our food and beverage portfolio to be better for the planet and people.”
