Fats and Oils

216 foods

Category guide

216 entries of butter, margarine, vegetable oils, lard, and cooking sprays. This is the most energy-dense category in the database — almost pure fat at roughly 9 kcal per gram. What differs is the fatty-acid split: olive and canola lean monounsaturated, butter and coconut lean saturated, and seed oils lean polyunsaturated.

Tips for choosing

  • Compare the fat-type columns (SFA / MUFA / PUFA), not just total fat — they behave differently.
  • A tablespoon of oil is ~120 kcal; small volume differences change totals fast.
  • Vitamin E is a real contribution from several vegetable oils.
  • Margarine versus butter is one of our compare pages — the fatty-acid shift is the point.
