Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Deb is absolutely correct. But Deb, doesn't olive oil have a taste? So if you try and mix it in something like mac and cheese or things like that, wouldn't it cause a taste change? I had been told that the reason they suggested canola oil was that it had no taste.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Ah you may be right Jen. I have no idea. I was just letting her know that in the good oil/bad oil controversy the olive oil is good too. But you may be right about that. Hmmm, good point. Deb Re: Camila - oils > Deb is absolutely correct.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 You are absolutely right. That is one of the reasons why rape seed oil (=Canola oil probably) is recommended. Olive oil might be tasty on pasta though, if you like the taste! /Camilla > > > > > > > Hi all, > > > > > > > I have a few questions about feeding tubes.
