am I missing something? i am however starting to also use coconut oil and pasture (grass fed cow) butter to add variety... Turns out that I am tolerating coconut oil just fine in cooking, though my wife says it doesnt agree with her palate (personally I love the taste), and virgin coconout oil and pasture butter (obviously I would never ever used hydrogenized) are both quite a bit more expensive than olive oil for cooking. in any case, I have never and would never use vegetable oils, either hot or cold.
