hydrogenation is a process that makes usually vegetable oils into solids.. it's one step away from plastic, and it's very unhealthy for u.. usually, to the uneducated consumer they'll read "partially hydrogenated vegetable oil" and think "hey, it's vegetable oil.. so it must be healthy!".. when in fact, swallowing a bar of butter is probably more healthy.. hydrogenation extends the shelf-life of most packaged foods which is why it's used most of the time.. it's now listed as trans fats i believe.. and trans fats are more harmful than saturated fats IMO..
