TABLESPOONS of butter? Are you frying the eggs or drowning them? <g>

I just use enough to keep them from sticking. Pea sized dab does it.

I have always loved fat. Just the other day a friend was reminiscing about when he and I had Caldo Gallego in Little Havana a good twenty years ago. He remembers vividly how I plucked the globs of fat out of my soup and savored them, then did the same with his soup. I still love fat. But I surprise myself now that my tastes have moderated. Last week I read some adoring remarks about Bubba Burgers in a low-carb blog so I bought a box. Couldn't eat them. They came out of the pan swimming in fat. I've become accustomed to 83-96% ground beef. The latter tastes better to me.

Re Omega 6, olive and avocado oils have about a 13:1 6:3 ratio, which may be better than cottonseed oil but still isn't good.

I was just told by a nutritionist health practitioner that Canola is is out. Don't use it. Coconut oil or olive oil are great but I know from personal experience that coconut oil can leave a flavor.

GHEE is great for eggs but a little bit as Lane3 suggested
for eggs.

I use Yogurt/Butter by Brummel and Brown for spread on bread.

Any objections to these items by a someone here. I learn a great deal from ya all. Thanks
