Sam 2012-09-05T17:09:58Z 2012-09-05T22:02:41Z <p>So I was wondering how much coconut oil(or oil in general) do you use in a week?</p> <p>Since this is my first week paleo I just realized that I may be using a jar of coconut oil a week. Does that seem like a lot?</p> <p>Thanks.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/147370/how-much-oil-do-you-use-a-week/147375#147375 Answer by Anonymous Chump for how much oil do you use a week?

MiMintzer 2012-09-05T18:14:23Z 2012-09-05T18:14:23Z <p>I use mostly coconut oil, about a tablespoon a day--a little to coat the pan when I cook my omelette and a spoonful straight. I eat minimal butter and no olive oil (most is not really olive oil and it would probably oxidize before I would be able to use it all up). I get the rest of my fats from meat, fish, nuts, yogurt, and avocados.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/147370/how-much-oil-do-you-use-a-week/147381#147381 Answer by bj for how much oil do you use a week? bj 2012-09-05T18:21:58Z 2012-09-05T18:21:58Z <p>Cooking for one (big eater), a 14 oz jar of coconut oil lasts about 3 weeks.

Varelse 2012-09-05T22:02:41Z 2012-09-05T22:02:41Z <p>About 8oz bacon fat (I keep it in a mason jar), 2 sticks butter, and probably a cup, cup and a half or so of olive oil per month. That's cooking for 2, one of whom is a big eater. </p> <p>I haven't tried coconut oil yet, and I'd like to get some leaf lard online.</p>
