Coconut oil is promoted as "the only oil" to use and I see no reason why that is true.  Palm oil [I lived in the Nigerian palm oil area] I understand is full saturated. I use butter and olive.  I rarely fry food but use peanut oil for its high temperature.

Hey Ken - why no virgin coconut oil or palm oil?  Is that a sustainability question or a health question?  I understand about the habitate issues with plantations and such.  Are you talking palm kernal or palm fruit oil?  Palm fruit oil is very healthy.

Blessings,

Aliza
