I guess we can throw out a study from a few years back that said butter is better than vegetable oils/margarine?
I’m going to stick with my “rural Pennsylvania family diet.” My parents, their 7 siblings, and my grandparents all lived into their 80s and 90s eating lots of red meat, potatoes, dairy, etc.
My grandmothers died at 95 and 96, and their diets were the same every day - eggs, sausage/bacon, toast, coffee for breakfast, and meat/potatoes/vegetable for lunch and dinner. Dessert was usually cookies or pie or cake or ice cream. Not a lot of processed foods. My grandfathers died at 80 and 86, and would have lived longer if they hadn’t smoked like chimneys!

I keep hearing contraditory recommendations.

My guess, is animal fat is better than more plant oils. The reason that I think this is because the ones promoting plant oils have an agenda: veganism, billgatesism, weirdoism.

For years they promoted Mazolla margarine as "better" because of corn oil. It turns out that corn oil really isn't good for you after all.

I'm willing to bet that the "plant oil people" are mostly leftists and democrats.

High carb high fat means deadly ketoacidosis

Low carb high fat (butter, bacon, avocado) means healthy ketosis

I am not impressed by the study. Self reporting of such small amounts is fraught with error.

Just use extra virgin olive oil. I read that imported olive oils may contain some doubtful oil, so I buy California Olive Ranch oil.

Say what you will about California, but in this regard, they are quite strict about whether olive oil produced in California is exactly what it is claimed to be. The California Olive Oil Council and the Olive Oil Commission of California make sure of this. Don't be fooled by fancy labels on imported olive oil, there is no guarantee that what's inside is the real deal.

Yeah bla bla bla. Can’t even think how many “studies” over the decades turned out to be bullshit.

Eggs are good
Eggs are bad

Coffee is good
Coffee is bad

Butter is good
Butter is bad

It’s always research money sloshing one way or another. None of this has anything to do with “science”.

I’ve read somewhere that there is no way the existing olive groves can supply the gallonage of olive oil that ships.

This is why blue states are healthier than red states.

‘ who paid for the study?’

The international corporate conglomerate mafia for big olive oil, obviously. Follow the money!

I’ll take health advice from someone like Dr. Casey Means, not from a blogging paperboy.
