Repeated studies show no link between saturated fat consumption and heart disease

The main cooking oils used today are vegetable and seed oils which contain high amounts of Omega 6 PUFAs. People eating a western diet eat way too high a ratio of Omega 6: Omega 3, they eat something like 15:1 to 30:1 when it should be 1:1

Vegetable and seed oils are one of the biggest culprits and are one of the unhealthiest things in modern diets as a result. Frying with lard instead of vegetable is unironically much healthier as well as being tastier.

can you make mayo with animal fat instead of oil?
would warm it to melting point before emulsifying with egg/vinegar.

I would expect that once the fat chills to room temperature or is refrigerated the emulsification will break.

>Nineteen meta-analyses addressing this topic were identified: 9 observational studies and 10 randomized controlled trials. Meta-analyses of observational studies found no association between SFA intake and heart disease, while meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials were inconsistent but tended to show a lack of an association.

No you can't due to the structure of saturated fats being denser.

You can however use olive oil which is a better option. Or in general any oil that is high in monounsaturated fats instead of polyunsaturated fats.

you shouldn't make mayo with olive oil as it turns out bitter

I barely use oil and when I do it's a splash of olive oil in my salad. I can't imagine lard being a good replacement.

Use high oleic sunflower oil if it really must be mayo.

If not, Hollandaise is tastier IMO, although not as versatile.

I want to but where do I even buy lard and tallow? My local grocery stores don't sell them. Do I just have to render it myself?

animal fats do still contain omega-6
its true that most vegetable and seed oils are terrible for you, much worse than animal fats, but there are still healthier options out there such as olive and avocado oils

>> No.15937018

>>15936866
Animal fats are much lower in PUFA, so if you ate an animal fat with a high amount of omega-6, it still wouldn't mess you up like a seed oil would. By that I mean it's easy enough to make up for it by eating more omega-3 elsewhere.

With that said, grass fed beef is about 1:1 omega 3:omega 6, and obviously fish is very high in omega 3. So in general animal fats are good for your omega 3: omega 6 ratio

Im sure olive oil is very healthy but a lot of it is fake.

I bought avacado oil once and found it disgusting.
Best healthy plant fat that is least likely to be bootleg is coconut oil, followed by peanut oil

The mafia controls Italian olive oil, so much of it is adulterated with other vegetable oils.
Just don't buy italian olive oil.

Also lower grades of olive oil.

>>15938335
"lower grade" (non-virgin) olive oil is not bad for you, it's just not as healthy as the (extra) virgin variants. On the flip-side it has a milder flavour so it does has it uses notably for mayonnaise.

The real Redpill with animal fats is the vitamin content. A, D, E, and K are only found in animal products and are stored in the fat.
The plant based versions are fake and gay and your body can’t use them unless it coverts them into the animal form first. They are “provitamins” meaning they can possibly be turned into vitamins but some people lack the genes to do this efficiently
