Unlike soybeans, soybean oil has close to zero protein in it. So if we are to oust soybean oil from Krsna kitchens, this should be done for some other reason than its protein content. Our Moscow temple sometimes uses soybean oil to cook for devotees mainly for financial reasons. Besides, vegetable oils tend to be much healthier for regular diet that ghee in the long run. However only cow ghee and butter are used in cooking for the Deities unless an authoritative recipe states otherwise.
