I don't know why this next paragraph bothers me so but it does. I think it has something to do with the rats and colon cancer. yuk

Olive oil and colon cancer
Spanish researchers suggest that including olive oil in your diet may also offer benefits in terms of colon cancer prevention (5). Their study results showed that rats fed diet supplemented with olive oil had a lower risk of colon cancer than those fed safflower oil-supplemented diets. In fact, the rats that received olive oil had colon cancer rates almost as low as those fed fish oil, which several studies have already linked to a reduction in colon cancer risk.

I don't think that helped much, but I definitely prefer the taste of Olive Oil over Safflower oil.

Hi - Here's a very interesting and informative article about oils/fats written by a biochemical researcher Mary Enig Ph.D. Hope this helps.
