You (and your little group of supporters) completely missed my point.
Of course people substitute ingredients all the time. Get real.

I wasn't commenting on your switch of oil.
I was laughing at your *reason* for the substitution and here it is
again:

"I have coconut oil, but I didn't feel like digging around in the
refrigerator for it, so I used peanut oil instead."

That sentence is what made me laugh. Sounds very lazy to me.

Even more funny is when you and your little gang then started saying
that I've turned into Sheldon or a combo of Steve and Sheldon. All of
you need to lighten up a bit. good grief.
