Definitely! Virgin olive oil is still considered one of the healthiest, if not the healthiest, oil. Remember when coconut oil was being pushed so hard?

Many say olive oil is the healthiest option. When reading the nutrition facts of the oils in my cabinet (olive, vegetable, and canola) I found that they all have just about the same amount of fat - that was surprising to me. I used to hear a lot about coconut oil, but that one actually seems less healthy than most because of the saturated fat (if I'm remembering correctly.)
Unless I'm cooking for something that really calls for the olive oil taste, though, I always cook with butter. There really isn't anything tastier to me! I also cook with ghee occasionally, which some people say is healthier than butter because it's more refined. I'm not sure if that's true or not, but it tastes good too!
