what cooking oil?
I've been eating a lot of egg whites and loving the easy protein. however it dawned on me a couple of days ago that my low calorie meal is being slighty fattened up by the cap of cooking oil. im considering buying a tub of " i cant believe its not butter" to cook in. i love the spray. any thoughts?
