Fatty oil - Shibouyu (English spelling)

This refers to fats and oils (esters of fatty acids and glycerin) that are liquid at room temperature. They are also called fatty oils or simply oils. They are divided into vegetable oils and animal oils. Vegetable oils include soybean oil, rapeseed oil, rice oil, corn oil, sesame oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, linseed oil, paulownia oil, and castor oil, while animal oils include fish oil and whale oil. Vegetable oils contain unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid, as well as some saturated fatty acids, but marine animal oils contain highly unsaturated fatty acids with a higher degree of unsaturation.
