Whats special about Olean?
Other fat replacers have to be mixed and matched into “systems” because each mimics only one or two functions of fat. Olean is the first non-fat cooking oil that has similar properties to fat and also does not have to be a part of any “system” to work — it does what it is supposed to do by itself. Plus, since Olean is not absorbed when eaten, it travels through the body unchanged like other poorly absorbed foods, such as high-fiber bran. That means it does not add any fat or calories to fried foods. This is something no other fat replacer can do.
