Buying tips:
Choose liquid vegetable oils high in unsaturated fat for cooking and in salad dressings. Examples are canola, corn, olive, peanut, safflower, sesame, soybean, and sunflower oils.
Buy light or nonfat mayonnaise instead of the regular kinds that are high in fat.
Preparation tips:
In cooking, limit butter, lard, fatback, and solid vegetable shortenings.
When using fats and oils, use only small amounts and substitute those high in unsaturated fat for those high in saturated fat.
For a spread, use tub or liquid margarine, or vegetable oil spread instead of butter.
Flavor cooked vegetables with herbs or butter-flavored seasoning
