If you are going to be eating deep fried foods (which is not the best idea to begin with) then it would be better to choose oils that have been shown to help raise your levels of HDL (good cholesterol). Excessive consumption of saturated fats is known to increase your risk for cardiovascular disease. This is common knowledge. If you do an Internet search you literally will get back millions of results that confirm this.

Here is one from the American heart association:

You can always tell someone who is invested in some kind of weird belief system; one of the first things they do is start hurling insults instead of engaging in meaningful conversation. It sounds to me like you may have been manipulated by advertising execs who are hawking frozen dinners, food bars, snack food and protein powder. Check your sources carefully. The best way to ensure good health is moderation in all things, a balanced diet, and exercise.

Yeah, and the American Heart Association endorses the Subway diet. Corrupt and behind the times. As is your common knowledge:
