The fat data MFP exports is listed under saturated, polyunsaturated, Monounsaturated and Trans Fat.
If vegetable oil is consumed and recorded in the Food Diary, under which category is it listed?

    It depends on what kind of vegetable oil it is . . . and whether the food database entry you choose accurately reflects it (because the database is crowd-sourced, and not everyone enters things accurately). Typically, vegetable oil is likely to contain a mix of fat types. Check the label on your vegetable oil against the database entry you choose. Your answer will be on the food label, and the right database entry will put the right values in your food diary.
