Natural oils and fats are best.
If it's 'hydrogenised' it is artificial food and not worth eating.
I live in Mexico, and the Mexicans deep fry a lot of their foods in lard. It doesn't seem to effect thier cardio-vascular systems as it does in the UK or US.

I just went out to get my mail and stopped for three fish tacos. The fish is cooked in lard in front of you. A nice piece or two is put on a flour tortilla, and you can put a variety of toppings on it. I like freshly sliced and pickled onions with peppers, a mixture of finely chopped tomatoes and onions, a splash of freshly squeezed lime and a blob of mayonnaise.

YUM.
