I like  rice bran oil for cooking. The worst oil for saturated fat in my opinion is coconut oil.

Actually, although coconut oil is a saturated fat it's very good for you. Coconut oil is being touted as a wonder oil in many circles.
People are returning to saturated fats because many of the poly unsaturated ones become trans fats when heated.
I love both rice bran and sunflower oils. I rarely deep fry.
I use rice bran in my skin care products as its such a light oil and it has great antioxidant properties.

Rice Bran and EVOO are my main oils, too.  I had never used RBO prior to getting on this forum but use it as my main alternative if I am not looking for an olive oil taste in my food.  I don't use much coconut oil, but, having read quite a bit about it, I feel that it is a really good oil as well and I should start looking to use it more often.

We use Rice bran oil for...pretty much everything! In the deep fryer, frypan, bread, well...cooking!! Does not smell as bad as normal oil in the deep fryer.  :D

We have used rice bran oil for years, rarely do I use anything else and it's great for deep and shallow frying, I buy it in the spray oil too
