A Greasy Situation:<br />

Your Guide to Cooking Oils<br />

By Sarene Alsharif, MPH<br />

Grocery shopping has become a<br />

difficult task over the years as the<br />

number of products has increased<br />

exponentially. How do you choose the<br />

best products when there are so many<br />

different variations of the same item?<br />

Bread has a whole side of an aisle all to<br />

itself! Head over to the oil aisle and you’ll<br />

find the variety just as great. Often, too<br />

many choices can leave you confused.<br />

What is the difference between virgin<br />

and non-virgin oils? What does “coldpressed”<br />

even mean? Which oils should<br />

be used for dressings and which can<br />

withstand heat? How do different oils<br />

affect one’s health? The answers to<br />

these questions will help you select the<br />

oil that best fits your needs.<br />
