Same here
But honestly which is a better oil to consume(Sunflower, Soya, Groundnut etc) - from a health perspective & of course the Brand

Rice: At least in & around Bangalore also because my grandparents used to have a farm back in our village where rice etc was grown, we normally buy Rice directly from Farmers in our Village - Cheap & Best without any artificial or whatever. what matters most is the size of the grains & also the taste

Best oil healthwise : extra virgin olive oil Best oil tastewise : groundnut oil Best oil smell wise : soyabean oil use refined oil ... if you are too picky about your health... choose exv olive oil... but it is ridiculously expensive like 450rs ~ 300ml or so and its texture and smell dont appeal to many

no oil is best for health !! olive oil are buzz word these days but they are still an oil. The only advice I can give you is that use little oil in cooking food and exercise daily.

^ that is not factually correct my friend ... olive is considered healthy because it contains high levels of omega - 3 and omega - 6 fatty acids (monosaturated fats) and also antioxidants...

its not my opinion. I once asked my doctor the same question. He gave the same reply. But yes olive is best of the worst. also see this link:Interview with Dr.Devi Shetty – Cardiologist « Random Thoughts In this dr clearly mentions the above statement
