So I guess the only cooking oil I should use is olive huh? And lard? Everything else seems like it gives you cancer.

olive oil, coconut oil, ghee/clarified butter, butter, butter, butter, butter, butter, butter, butter, bnutere ,ebue fi jadi fjdjdjdj butasdjifaidfa

>>21093264
Butter and ghee(never tried it) yeah, but I think coconut oil is bad for some reason I can't remember
>>
>>21093262
correct
Olive oil
lard
tallow
>>
>>21093268
ghee is good when the food will be cooked at a high temperature since it won't burn but it has a bit less flavor than butter. some people say coconut oil is bad because it has saturated fat but personally i don't really think it's an issue.
>>
>>21093262
High temperature plant oils when frying carbohydrates is basically the theoretical maximal "badness", highly "purified" animal fats will hold up to high temperatures with the least degradation usually (but so will canola/rape but that may inherently come with inflammatory properties)

So avoid deep-frying carbohydrates generally, but for "normal" cooking an animal fat is probably your best bet.
>>
I use nothing but rapeseed oil because it has rape in its name.
>>
>>21093262
Lol no. Olive oil is only for dressing and light cooking. It smokes too easily. Palm oil is the best for frying, followed by animal oils.
>muh orangutans
You didn't care about the bears, buffalos and beavers displaced by s o y, rape and olive farms. Why start now.
>>
>>21093262
There is NO SUCH THING as a healthy concentrated fat. You cannot extract the fats from something and expect to benefit from consuming it. Arguing which fat is the best is like arguing that 98.62% pure meth is healthier than 98.59% pure meth.. you may be right but you should minimise your usage to as close to 0 as you can humanly manage and keep it to yourself

Oh hey Chef Jean-Pierre.

No I will be greasepilled shartmaxxer

Fuck you
The pongos need our help

>>21093262
Oh nooo i might die at 76 instead of 80 if heart disease doesnt get me first.
>>
>>21095083
Damn 4 whole years, it's deadlier than I thought
>>
Its like mother fuckers have no idea that they're going to die anyway. Doo all the right shit, you still die. I dont get their fear. Comes off as ridiculous and juvenile to me. You die when it's time for you to die, you can think you can hide from death by going to a different town and having someone lie to you, but death already was scheduled to meet you there
>>
>>21095083
Yeah the issue with things like this is that you can have a lower quality of life for many years before actually dying.
>>
>>21093262
I just use EVOO and bacon fat (lard) personally, IDK, bacon fat was what my grandmother and great grandmother used for everything, makes sense to me. EVOO is nice for greens though.
>>
>>21095177
>worried about cancer and inflammation from seed oils
>eats bacon
I got bad news for you bro
>>
I have been using avocado oil. surprisingly neutral flavor, which is good for making things like asian cuisine and fried rice where I don't want to use olive oil.

Any thoughts on avocado oil? I believe it is not a seed oil
>>
>>21093262
It's simple. Avoid oxidized fats, maintain the correct balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and enjoy in moderation.

Cold pressed seed oils are not the same thing as highly processed canola or vegetable oil.
>>
>>21095201
Avocado oil is not a seed oil. Make sure you're getting 100% pure avocado oil that is not oxidized.

I've had cold pressed avocado oil before. Nice substitute for evoo if you want to mix things up a little.

There's nothing wrong with seed oils. Stop believing millennial and zoomer retards on tiktok and youtube. If you can, use olive oil when appropriate. But olive oil isn't good for searing or high temperature cooking.

>>
>>21095214
What about highly oxidized seed oils and trace amounts of hexane???
>>
>>21093724
>Palm oil
>Good
Not today Satan
>>
>>21095214
Most sneed oils have tbhq,also oxidation happens
>>
>>21093264
yo, are you alright? chill with the butter, bro. i think you got an heart attack there
>>
>>21095256
>>21095304
Then use avocado oil if you're that worried.
>>

They were literally funded by a company making vegetable shortening, recommended people eat that instead of animal fat, and we later learned vegetable shortening was one of the worst things you could possibly eat because of how it caused heart disease.

>First, while seed oils do contain high levels of omega-6 fatty acids...And while omega-6 is pro-inflammatory, the amount of inflammation it's associated with has not been shown to be harmful
>there's no reason to avoid seed oils
>it's bad for you but not that bad
>if you don't use too much and only eat it with healthy foods it's okay
lol this is hilarious
>>
>>21095201
I read a lot was adulterated and there wasn't really a list of good brands when I looked.

What about peanut oil?
Aside from evoo, I have moved to using more bacon fat, butter, (((schmaltz))) rendered from chicken skin, and ghee. I have peanut and avocado oil if I need something neutral for mayo or whatever. I don't know which is better and kinda don't care since it's rarely used now.
