    I only use Pam myself.

    I would only ever cook with coconut oil or ghee if I was to pick something else but never saw the reason to add those oils into my foods.

    Definitely though, I would never use an actual oil like EVOO etc.

    When extra-virgin olive oil is heated above 350 °C (662 °F), the unrefined particles within the oil get burned. This leads to deteriorated taste and even toxicity just like when you joint up.

    This is the best oil to cook with.Its also high in vitamin b17,meaning no cancer (prevents cancer)

    How and why would you get the temperature up that high anyway?

    TEMPERATURE TYPE OF FOOD
    Medium (130–145º C) High water content: vegetables, potatoes, fruit…
    Hot (155– 170º C) Coated in batter,flour or breadcrumbs, forming a crust
    Very hot (175–190º C) Small, quickly fried: small fish, croquettes
    EVOO is perfect for frying and cooking..

    so it's all olive oil propaganda? that's like saying we should trust any data about steroids on this forum..i mean its a steroids forum.

    the numbers and info are true. is there any other data that proves something else? i'd love to read it.
