This is such a an innovative product. The taste is undetectable and is amazing for baking. This truly is a guilt free alternative to an otherwise almost-obsolete food item. I loved this for making snickerdoodles!

Chosen Foods - Avocado Oil Shortening

This is my new favorite thing to buy on every grocery trip. Very happy to find a clean Oil Shortening. This Avocado Oil Shortening has been so far the best ingredient to be added to all my favorite dishes. I tried it with frying and baking and it’s like magic. I wish it came in a bigger tub which would be great for cooking larger recipes. My Mother enjoys baking and she approves ! I totally recommend it. Thank you Chosen Foods and Influenster.

Love it. Healthy and it spreads easy and tastes great. Can use in lots of different recipes. My biggest complaint is that it’s hard to clean off hands and the pan.

I’ve got this product form influenster for my honest review. I’m all about finding healthy alternatives for my family. This is a great option. Only one ingredient! I used it to cook omelets and stir fry vegetable. Creamy soft texture, easy to use. Definitely better and healthier option than Crisco or similar items. Would recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this product for cooking on my blackstone grill. It works great! It doesn’t leave too much of a greasy residue like other oils and adds the perfect subtle flavor to the food I’m cooking.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great replacement ingredient for me and has worked well in every recipe I’ve used it in. Plus, it has the added benefit of moisturizing my skin when it inevitably gets on my hands.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This works great for ensuring things do not stick to the pan. Most recently used the avocado oil to make lovely golden brown pancakes. I prefer butter flavor, but if you just need grease, this works well. Product received as part of a promotion.

Healthier and easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Chosen Foods Avocado Shortening! It works just like the avocado oil I already buy, but in a convenient, solid form. It melts beautifully, making it easy to use in a range of dishes. The clean, simple ingredients are a huge plus, and storage is a breeze. So far, I’ve used it for frying eggs, tortilla chips, and cooking fajita vegetables, and it performs wonderfully each time—no aftertaste whatsoever. I feel good about using this over other oils, knowing it’s a healthier option. Definitely a win, and it’s now a pantry staple for me!

Vegan friendly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It can be used as a substitute for butter or traditional shortening. For baking, it adds moisture and richness to desserts like cakes, cookies, pies, and frosting. It's great to use to fry tacos. My favorite is substituting butter with this for vegan cooking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a healthier alternative to Frisco, which honestly I don't usually use, I usually use olive oil. It has a good flavor and can be used for baking or frying.
