Praise be! TJ's sunflower oil is of the high oleic variety! AND,
it's only $3.99/liter, less than $16.50 a gallon, including local
sales tax. Throw out that canola and soybean garbage. We're fryin'
now, baby.

How do they compare in price?

TJ's $3.99/liter, Wegman's $4.99/liter. TJ's doesn't call theirs high
oleic, but you can tell from the nutrition info.

I've never tried sunflower oil, but I will buy a liter of TJ's and see
how I like it. I pretty much use EVOO for everything now (I don't
deep fry), but I like to keep a liter of something else on hand "just
in case"... old habits are hard to break.

I have a small bottle of grape-seed oil that I use from time to time
when I think I need to crank up the heat a bit... but it was expensive
enough that I don't feel like I can "waste" it.

I think I'll just get some of that sunflower oil from Trader Joe's.
Any MidEast market is off the beaten track for me.

Do you feel the same way about food that was expensive, but you think
might have spoiled? Grapeseed oil is bad oil. Any oil high in
linoleic acid should be assumed to be rancid.

And the stuff at the imports store is probably high linoleic sunflower
oil, which is bad. So far, TJ's and Wegman's are the only retailers I
know of that carry the good stuff.

We don't have Wegman's here, so I'll look at TJ's. Thanks for doing
the "footwork".

For the past week, TJ's has been out of stock of this, they even removed the shelf tag. Today, Amy Mac at Stonestown TJ checked their inventory sheet for me, and it showed "OWA" (order when available), i.e., out of stock at the warehouse also. Undoubtedly due to the fact that their sunflower oil is "Product of Ukraine"!

I can recommend this brand:

Smude's Cold Pressed High Oleic Sunflower Oil

http://www.amazon.com/Cold-Pressed-H...A3QJWNCB3ESUS7

It's locally grown and produced by farmers in central Minnesota. It is
very good.
I bought a half gallon to try and ended up going back for a two and a
half gallon jug.

I called my local store, and they were out, but a store about 20 minutes
away had a full shelf. I bought a dozen liters, and now they only have 5
left. The guy did say that the warehouse that serves St. Louis stores had
some left, so I just called my nephew, and he's probably on the phone
ordering himself a case while I type this.

Even in half gallons, with the shipping it's well over three times the
price of the TJ's.
