A few days ago we looked at the pros and cons of butter versus margarine and buttery spreads. Which got us thinking about fat—dietary fat, that is. And you know what? Dietary fat seriously rocks. While you obviously don’t want to go overboard on it, healthy fats are an essential part of a healthy diet (need proof? read this) and having a little bit of fat is key in most recipes and cooking endeavors (unless you’re using this cookware, in which case I recommend eating some salmon or avocado for your healthy fats). So, we want to know: What do you cook with?

Can’t see the poll? Click here to tell us about the fat you use for cooking.

As always, tell us more in the comments! We’d love to hear the brands you use, the kinds of oils you choose (canola, coconut, sesame—oh, the options!) and all of the deliciously fatty details! —Jenn
