Can't stand Pam or any of the generic versions. They taste foul, to be
kind about it.

As for the oven 'fries', we put a little oil on the baking pan and roll
the potato bits around in that. Works perfectly without paying for a
spray can full of rubbish.

Cake tins etc are brushed with a little oil or softened butter. No fuss
and no messy overspray.
