Please, once again could you here please give me guidance as to what oil
is best used for cooking and/or preparing what particular foods? I grew
up with a mother who used only Crisco or butter, along with having
Hispanic family friends who used only lard or butter for everything.
Oils of any sort were quite uncommon in households then, rather like my
having lard here now only when I'm making tortillas.

Appreciatively,
