    From DANDR
    3. Liberal amounts of fats and oils are permitted. This includes butter, olive oil, mayonnaise and any oil that is liquid at room temperature. (Consume no hydrogenated oil or other trans fats-including margarine.)

    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

      I use peanut oil quite often. On my bottle, the nutrition label reads 0g carbs and 0g sugar per 100ml, and the only ingredient is the peanut oil. I was a bit worried about it too at first because I thought it may contain nuts, but in DANDR it mentions a whole list of acceptable induction oils including walnut oil, so it must be ok.

        Yes... it's fine. I use peanut oil lots too (when I'm not using EVOO), particularly for frying.

          I use a lot of peanut, different olive oils and Ghee (clarified butter) Peanut oil has a super high burning point so I prefer it for frying.

            Re: Peanut oil

            Thats exactly why i started buying it ... for the high burning temp.. I love my EVOO but everytime i fryed with it .. the oil would start to smoke up.. i also tried some Almond oil that was really awesome .. gave the food a great flavor, but i cant find it now ...

            Great ... Thanks everyone!!!

              When I can get ghee in bulk I will use it to fry as well since it has a high burn point. It tastes much better and is very healthy. It's saturated so it doesn't turn into free radicals when frying like the polyunsaturated fats do. Peanut oil is high in both mono and polyunsaturated fat. I can only get little jars of ghee around here. You should try it though, it cooks better than butter. Some of my other favorites are truffle flavored oils and grapeseed oil on my salads. Also, give avocado oil a whirl! *yumm*
