All this scientific info goes over my head. Can we simplify?

I've tried flax oil and don't like the flavor at all. Fish oil I won't even try....

In a raw state, the only oils I enjoy are evening primrose, olive, sesame, and some corn (if it's completely unrefined). Other oils must be incorporated into the food so as to be nearly indistinguishable.

I thought I might already eating too much fat, because I use tahini (sesame paste) and various nut butters (cashew, almond, peanut) so often.

And let's not forget there is fat in whole grains and beans - both of which are staples in my diet. And there's a goodly amount of fat in my favorite animal products - salmon, halibut, crab, turkey, etc. And I have an average of 2,000 mg of EPO daily taken as a supplement.

The way I see it, when I start craving chocolate, french fries, chips, etc. - which happens very seldom - that's how I know am not eating enough fat. Sometimes the craving is for olives, and I freely indulge in them. I am also fond of avocados but only eat them when I find them on sale.

What about eggs? I've eaten more eggs lately than I ever did in the past. That means I go through a dozen or so per month. Are eggs a good source of fat? Whenever I have eggs, there is oil involved in the preparation.
