Triglycerides are triethers.
    
  Triglycerides are made, in part, from 1,2,3-propanetriol.
    
  Triglycerides are also made from fatty acids.
    
  Both fats and oils are triglycerides.
    
  Most of the fatty acids contain an even number of C atoms, and are unbranched, but may contain cis-double bonds.
