You can cook with EVOO, but it is not a good idea. Heat damages olive oil. You won't taste a problem, but the structure of the oil changes when it gets hot. I cooked with EVOO for more than a year before I made a shift to ghee or coconut oil when using heat, so it won't kill you. But you can and should choose another cooking fat.

Not only is evoo a poor oil to cook with you want to vary your fat intake to also include good saturated fats ( like those mentioned above). Tallow from grass fed beef is another excellent option.

Huh, I've been using EVOO to cook for years.  I've never had a scorching issue, but I wasn't aware that is broke down the integrity of the oil.  I also don't usually cook things on much higher than medium heat.  I'll have to start using more coconut oil.  I've been trying to incorporate at the healthy changes I've made while being on W30 into my regular cooking when I'm not strictly following the program.
