Prune kernel oil
Prune kernel oil is a recently developed vegetable oil, pressed from the seeds of the d'Agen prune plum. The seeds are extracted from the fruitstones of the plum and have an oil content of 35% by weight, consisting of 70% oleic acid and 20% linoleic acid. The oil has a flavour reminiscent of bitter almond, and has been aggressively marketed as a gourmet virgin cooking oil. It is also used in the cosmetic industry for its emollient properties.
