Gender: | good fats are anything with high Monounsaturated and/or Polyunsaturated fats.. saturated and trans fats are the bad ones.. it all comes down to cholesterol. trans and saturated fats raise bad cholesterol which is LDL. Monounsaturated raise good cholesterol which is HDL and lowers LDL Polyunsaturated lowers all cholesterol which is ok but not the best good foods: nuts, extra virgin Olive oil, flax seed oil, all natural peanut butter (with the oil that is floating on top, mix that in and never pore it out.. that's good fat there), Omega 3, 6, 9s.., eggs, dairy, avocado bad fats: processed food, chocolate, candy, fat from meat (but a small amount is ok). here's a site I like to use to find out some good food nutrition. http://www.whfoods.com/foodstoc.php |

I think when foods/meats are fryed/cooked in their own fats , they call them 'trans fats' - theirs a new 'law' in CAN that says its 'illegal' to do so in restaurants and food manufacturing.....which reminds me I had fries the other week from a DIVE and they where cooked in the same oil as some type of rancid ass fish - MMM tasty | |

Gender: | when u say the same oil do u mean the same oil reused or the same type of oil...if its the same type of oil reused thats absolutly disgusting in my opinion if your switching the types of food that are used with it |

| THEY used the same oil from the halibut/cod cooking to cook the fries as well - I suppose it would not have been so bad if I were having fishnchips - I was having a burger, OH and onion rings ( |

| good fats are not limited to unsaturated fats. there are some saturated fats that have good health benefits as well. coconut being one of them. good fats are things like: extra virgin olive oil, avacado, almonds, walnuts, coconut oil, etc. bad fats are things like: margarine, ANY transfats, anything that is a "hydrogenated" oil |
