Grain Brain Organic Palm Shortening (3 lb) Non-Hydrogenated Pure and Natural, Quality, Sustainable Certified

This is an outstanding product and a great value. I use it on a regular basis for baking and hope it is always available.

I really liked the texture which was not as hard as other brands. It was more creamy and easy to work with. Works great in my recipes for cookies etc.

I used to get the spectrum brand palm oil shortening, but in the last year or so it's gotten much harder to find and way more expensive. I ordered this instead because it was cheaper than spectrum with the exact same ingredient. It's a fairly large tub which is great, we use a lot of it. We've got a bunch of allergies so this is our go-to replacement for any butter or fat in baking. It replaces butter perfectly in cakes, cookies, homemade graham crackers, etc. I'm very happy with how this shortening has performed and will probably buy this instead of spectrum from now on because it's a better price. Glad I found it!

I used this for making pie crust. I plan to use it for tamales soon. Much better then regular lard that has an aftertaste.

I have multiple food allergies and am sensitive to cross contamination, so I bought this as a potential dairy/coconut replacement. Before I use something new, I always make sure to contact the company and ask them about other on-site allergens. When I contacted Grain Brain (the maker of this palm shortening), they were very open about any potential allergens and/or possible cross contamination. I was concerned about potential cross contamination from coconut oil (which they also sell), but as of 12/2016 they said "Our coconut oil is not processed in the same facility or same equipment’s or on the same line than the palm shortening. However it is repackaged in the same facility but it is not in contact with each other. It is packaged with different tools, and not at the same time, But in the same facility." As it turns out, I'm also allergic to palm oil, but otherwise I would totally buy this again.

Great shortening alternative. Works well to make a flaky pie crust without hydrogenated oils. I appreciate the big tub value.

This shortening is nice to use for my pie crusts, cookie baking and anytime I use a shortening - no more hydrogenated oils! My baked goods taste fine - you cannot tell the difference and there is no color issue. Love this organic shortening.

This shortening is great and so much better for you than traditional shortenings. Works great in foods.
