Why coconut oil?
And I also despise onions and won't eat anything that's made with 'em. My grandfather was the same way.
Whoa. Don't use coconut to cook with on the stove dawg. It has a very low smoke point and that is when it starts to degrade to some carcinogenic by-products.Coconut oil because it's the best thing to cook with on a stovetop after duck fat.
Plenty of healthy reasons and it's tasty too

Additionally it has extremely high saturated fats. Sunflower, Safflower, Canola or Olive (Peanut and Corn are also alright) for stovetop.
Onions are the nazis of the food world.
French onion is the second best soup of all time. ALL TIME. Some melted gruyere, real onions and none of that Lipton broth BS, those tureen-style serving bowls... mmm.
HatW - I'm really happy fo you - imma letchoo finish, but Smash88 is dissing one of the best vegetables OF ALL TIME.
Omfg how can you be dissing broccoli? I LOVE steamed broccoli - especially with poached eggs and toast for breakfast. The fibre in the broccoli is really helpful to a healthy diet imho. Sometimes, for me at least, the egg, toast and coffee leave an indigestion feeling and usually the broccoli evens everything out.
I try and eat a variety of vegetables but broccoli is one of my fav's.
Baby potatoes fresh out of the garden, boiled with the skin on, and topped with really good butter and herbs. Yum! Best veggie ever.
No that would be broccoli!
I can't believe this madness you all speak of. First Benny w/ the onions, then Smash w/ the broccoli hatred, and now Bonk has to pick on the Brussels sprouts (oh and btw I thought it was 'brussel sprouts' until the little red squiggly line set me straight). And what is this business about ruining broccoli by steaming? That is by far the ideal way to enjoy broccoli. Warm, but not boiled which overcooks. I love Brussels sprouts too - steamed with butter and garlic - another fibre / vitamin-rich food.
All this talk makes me wonder how children develop dislikes of food. Is it an in-born dislike that is passed on via DNA, or is there some traumatic event that causes the development?
