I don't fry a whole lot ,mainly because it's not the best food for you :D but when i do I use normal or light tasting olive oil mainly because it's natural AND it doesn't have so much hydrogenated and all that nasty stuff in it.If i don't have that on hand I'll use canola oil.What do you use when you bake r fry with oil?

For general frying, I use vegetable oil. It is an absolute atrocity to cook with olive oil imho, completely ruins the whole point of buying good stuff for the flavour for salads e.t.c. :P

If I'm cooking Asian food (broad term, I know), I try to use peanut oil if I have any.

I don't really fry foods but normally when cooking I use non stick spray so I'll go with that

Sorry,damned phonics!

I have no problem with vegetable oil but I find it to stay in the food and be a stronger taste.

not light tasting olive oil ,even regular olive oil isn't too much,and it's very easy to fry with,well for me,I just like it because it doesn't overly grease up a food.

I use Vegetable for everyday frying (Not exactly everyday)

But if I'm making something like garlic bread or a salad or whatever I'll use Olive Oil

I mainly use vegetable oil, soy as a preference. There is nothing better than deep fried wings with Red Hot on them. Blue cheese and celery to help cut the heat and followed up with homemade fries. Oh and a cold beer goes is nice also.
