About Fish oil, menhaden, fully hydrogenated
Menhaden oil is pressed from a small, oily Atlantic fish that's rarely eaten directly but harvested in huge quantities for its oil. In its natural state it's a rich source of omega-3 fats — but this entry is the fully hydrogenated version, which is a very different thing.
Hydrogenation hardens the oil by saturating its fats, turning a liquid into a solid. In the process the delicate omega-3 fatty acids people associate with fish oil are largely converted to saturated fat, so this is not the heart-healthy supplement it might sound like. Like all pure oils and fats it is extremely energy-dense, at roughly 900 calories per 100 grams.
Fully hydrogenated fish oil is mostly an industrial fat used in manufacturing rather than something you'd cook with or take by the spoon. For omega-3s, fresh fish or a standard fish-oil supplement is the relevant choice.
