When are the board awards again? Hugo is a shoe in for ‘post of the year’ here.

Imagine the afters where Hugo and Loopy do loads of bugle and just sit writing pedantic paragraphs to each other, the rain slowly drizzling on them inside Casa Smalls, disk1 on repeat…

303abuser seed oils are horrible for you. stick with avocado/olive/coconut oils, just be aware of heat stability if you’re cooking with them.

the tldr for hugo’s book that i posted a week and a half ago.

    303abuser again that’s not entirely true in that canola/rapeseed oil isn’t too bad (even if, say, sticking to olive oil wherever possible could be preferable).

    Flaxseed oil can be good as well due to its high Omega 3 content, though one shouldn’t cook/fry with it due to its low smoke point.

    Also, if you’re going to recommend coconut oil you might as well say that it’s alright to use good quality butter occasionally as well. The big downside with the two of them is obviously their being high in saturated fat and potential effect in raising cholesterol. However, there are pros and cons to both in their further nutritional profile, e.g. butter has fewer calories, some omega 3, and more vitamins, while coconut oil has more antioxidants and a higher smoking point.
    Tldr coconut oil and good quality butter are likely similarly alright in moderation depending on your cardiovascular + cholesterol situation.

    Your mention of avocado oil is a good one though, and has been missed off the charts above. It seems to have a pretty similar profile overall to olive oil.

      hugopal it doesn’t need to be entirely true. no diet advice is going to cover everyone. bottom line is that what i said is accurate for most people and it’s good advice. no one is even going to read what you posted, much less get any value from it.

      Along_the_Wire at least people would’ve read my post

      I’m not that bothered tbh, I put them together for my own curiosity as much as anyone else’s benefit.

      But by all means keep making brief, readable comments that advertise to everyone that you’re an absolute berk if you wish.

        Hadn’t even realised I did that, lol.

        Can’t believe how sensitive the screen on my phone is. Almost as sensitive as you, Granto

          I downvoted because by your admission it’s funny.
