I read that sunflour pil is better for cooking than olive oil because olive oil burns at a lower temperature.
Then I read that we shouldn't be using sunflower oil we should be using olive oil.
Then I read that we should be only using extra virgin olive oil.............

Awaiting next advisory......

I think it was Jasper Carrot said everything is bad for you.

They force fed rats hot dogs for a week and they died :(

The thought of you dropping pellets has left an image in my brain that I can’t unsee.

Then there’s Palm oil, plenty of discussions about the use of that o_O
I wouldn't use that shit on ethical grounds alone. It's also very high in saturated fats.

There's way better oils for cooking, coconut probably being the best because it's stable at very high temperatures. Extra Virgin olive oil is the best for general use like drizzling on salads or pasta but no so good for cooking. It's not heat stable and when subjected to very high temperatures, like in a frying pan, it breaks down into some nasty shit and becomes very not good for you.

I find it hard to understand why people are panicking about a vegetable oil shortage….or are we the only household in the land that uses it about once every three years.
