    There’s this misconception that vegan means forced healthy. It’s not. If I want to be an unhealthy vegan I will eat some pasta, bread, fries… All mixed up.

    Traditionally unhealthy stuff, all vegan. And don’t come with “you can fry with fat” no I’m from Spain not France, here we fry with virgin olive oil as a default.

          No shit it fries. It’s not a money thing, it’s a health thing. It’s a cold oil that shouldn’t be heated to such temps.

            Research published in 2018 by Acta Scientific Nutritional Health found that when compared to other popular cooking oils, extra virgin olive oil was the most chemically stable after heating at high temperature. In addition, despite being exposed to extreme heat it was still safe to consume. The tests consisted of a 20-minute frying at 240C and a 6-hour deep fry at 180C.
