Agreed, but then saying that I don't like olive oil :rotfl: I think for the amount you use when cooking the health benefits are irrelevant, but it is excellent for kneading/bread making.
They are without doubt my favourite shop bought dessert, mmmmmm.
Evening/morning all, got in from work 40 minutes ago and due to Ideal Home opening an hour early I now have to be at work at 9 so 2 hours of sleep for me with a 7 hour shift with the public, God help me.
You have my sympathies PD.
Just got in from work too
DD has music school at 9am and dance school at 1pm so I'm gonna try to grab a couple hours kip now too.
Night all
and morning to anyone getting up

Need to go back to complain about the Carbonara mixes which were 'woopsies', so poss a £2 gift card too!
Have a lovely day

Think I read somewhere that it it helps those who suffer from constipation..........
Olive oil - yes but not for cooking as it has a low smoking point.
Seed oils - No - too high in Omega 6 - it is omega 3 we are generally lacking in our diet.
Butter /Lard - never used it for years if I have then it will be and ingredient in something which I would have bought. Tend not to buy ready made stuff :cool:
Margarine - No - one step away from plastic :eek::eek:
Coconut oil - yes
Fat will not make you Fat
Those who low carb will have a high fat diet because they have switched their fuel source from carbs to fat and the body seems more stable and works better when that is the case
Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.
