I just checked the label again and found :

" Fractionated Palm Kernel Oil"

Can anyone explain how meaningful that is?

Fractionation is the isolation of a particular part of the oil. They use it
to increase or decrease the proportion of certain fatty acids in order to
alter the melting point and behavior of the oil and products made from it.
I'm not sure exactly how this affects the lipid profile, but it's a physical
process and does not produce trans fatty acids.
