The best oils/fats are tallow and lard from pasture raised livestock (meaning they weren't fed grains, which contain lots of chemical sprays). Secondary to that, is butter (from similarly raised livestock), extra virgin olive oil, extra virgin avacado oil (make sure its real, as most avocado oil is fake), and extra virgin coconut oil. There is still some debate about coconut oil, though.
Get organic if you can. Never use seed oils. Never use anything other than extra virgin for oils, which uses mechanical means to extract the oil. Every other type of oil uses chemicals to extract the oil, and often other chemical additives to mask the rancdlid taste.
How about olive oil?
EVOO is fine since it olives that have been ground and cold pressed. Also make sure you get it in a tinted glass bottle to avoid light from oxidizing it.

Extra virgin first press is the healthiest you can get. I dont like the taste though so i use later presses. Avacado and coconut are super healthy too
Thanks for the info. This is the first time I've ever heard about distinctions between the presses so I will have to look into that.
