Standard oils
Article Abstract:
A review of the UK domestic market for liquid vegetable oils, namely, blends and single-seed oils such as corn, sunflower and rapeseed, is presented. The factors affecting the edible oils and fats market are healthy eating habits which heightened the demand for oils that are low in cholesterol such as rapeseed and sunflower oil and those that are low in saturated fats such as olive oil. The health benefits of such products will increase their usage in contemporary cuisines while a decline in the standard oils sector will be observed.

Yellow fats
Article Abstract:
The yellow fats sector in the UK is likely to experience a decline in market value between 1998 and 2003 even as product development looks set to continue unabated. The only bright spot in the market is the dairy spreads, which is the best-performing sector and is the only sector projected to post current value growth. Other sectors such as butter, low/reduced-fat spreads, packet margarine, soft margarine and polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, will have lackluster sales.
