cooking spray.

Most cooking sprays are labeled as having 0 calories because a standard 1/4-second spray contains less than 5 calories. However, the product contains approximately 792 calories per 100g, so it is important to use short bursts rather than long, continuous sprays.

Yes, cooking spray is keto-friendly as it is primarily composed of fats and contains very few carbohydrates per serving. It is an excellent tool for greasing pans or coating vegetables without adding significant macros to your meal.

Most cooking sprays are vegan as they are made from plant-based oils like canola, olive, or sunflower oil. However, some 'butter-flavored' varieties may contain dairy derivatives, so you should always check the ingredient label if you follow a strict vegan diet.

It is generally recommended to avoid using aerosol cooking sprays on high-quality non-stick pans. The lecithin and propellants in the spray can build up over time, creating a sticky residue that is difficult to remove and can eventually ruin the pan's non-stick coating.

Yes, cooking spray has an expiration date, usually found on the bottom of the can. Over time, the oil can go rancid and the propellant may lose its pressure, resulting in an uneven spray or an unpleasant taste.

Store cooking spray in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources like the stove or oven. Because the cans are pressurized and contain flammable propellants, they should never be stored in temperatures above 120°F (49°C) or near an open flame.
