Good point on PUFA, that was probably worth making it into my conclusion too.
In my home cooking I've started using macadamia nut oil (similar profile to olive oil, it's high in monounsaturated fats) in place of vegetable oil. You can get it on Amazon and it has a more neutral, slightly nutty flavor and a higher smoking point than olive oil, so it's great for slightly higher temps or cooking foods that you don't want to taste like olive oil.
- loeg 10y agoHow does macadamia nut oil compare to olive oil on price per liter? Is it within a factor of 10?
- dcosson 10y agoThere's such a range of olive oils, but I think it's roughly the same price for a similar quality. It's just kind of hard to find. This is the one I buy (it's been prime before, looks like right now it's not) so $0.52 an ounce.

- loeg 10y agoThanks. That isn't unreasonable.
