I mean the one you do when you want something easy to do, but not when you're tired at the point you microwave a frozen-meal, or just cut down a piece of cheese and put it in a bread

Avocado oil is better for you than sunflower oil. It has a high smoke point too so is my oil of choice for heat. Olive oil for cold uses only.

I've never even seen avocado oil but olive oil is perfectly good for cooking, just don't fry anything in it.

I've smoked it too many times in a hot pan, not worth the risk. It's probably OK in baked dishes that don't get as hot as pan fried dishes.

Yeah like I said, it's no good for frying, but for baking it's fine, and it can be added to hot dishes late too.
