lobind Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 In Mark's Daily Apple today Mark says that the above captioned oil is Paleo. What are your thoughts? I need a neutral oil to make mayo with and am having trouble finding one that is whole-30 approved (I do not want to use coconut oil). Also, does anyone have a reliable or favorite source for this product? Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted July 24, 2012 Moderators Share Posted July 24, 2012 The standard for making your own mayo is "light" olive oil. Extra virgin tastes bad in mayo, but the light stuff tastes good and is cheaper too. The Whole9/30 doesn't care if a food is Paleo or not. The concern is health properties. Seed oil is okay in limited quantities for dressings, etc, but should not be heated or used a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaseyD Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I make mine with avocado oil now (someone else here mentioned they did that hear and it is amazing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan W Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Sunflower is very good oil for the cooking. Its taste is excellant and I always prefer to use sunflower oil or coconut oil in my cooking. You might want to scroll up and read Tom Denhams view on cooking with seed oils. He is one of the Moderators and really one of the experts on what is okay and what isn't. Cooking with seed oils is on the "don't do it list" from my understanding of the Whole30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
