The only oil I buy and use is Expeller pressed Coconut oil (NOT Louann's sold in most grocery stores, it's uses solvents to express the oil, thus much cheaper) and Safflower oil. I saute and bake with those two. I rarely deep fry anything using these oils, they are too expensive to use for frying. LOL. That keeps our diet low in fat! I use 3/4 the amount of sugar (pure cane sugar) called for when baking, pure cane bakes differently then beet sugars, and mostly Agava Nectar (which tastes mild and very sweet and doesn't spike your sugar level all at once like sugar) in liquids and as syrup. I don't buy processed foods at all. No luncheon meats, etc. Nothing with nitrates if possible. Nitrates are especially bad, causes all kinds of problems that build up over time. Common sense and a no complaining spouse will make it enjoyable to make healthy cooking choices day by day. If you spouse doesn't like the healthier choices, feed him the junk, you eat the healthy.
