Olive oil, vegetable, sunflower or canola oil for general frying
Peanut + sesame oil for really hot wok action
Butter for almost everything else
Beef dripping for roast meat + roast potatoes
Ghee for Indian food
Lard occasionally
All yogurt etc is always full fat, if you take out the fat they have to boost flavour artificially, usually by sweetening it.
Fat gives food flavour, makes you feel fuller and consume less food, it is also good for you in moderate amounts. Of course too much fat is bad so you need to be sensible about things.
ppl who are low fat fanatics are kidding themselves with constant sugar bombs
ask yourself - why is it always fat people eating low fat foods?
I recommend checking out some of the documentaries by Michael Mosley. He led the way with the 5:2 diet and has done a lot of good, sensible work on the effects of different forms of exercise and a balanced diet.
