Are you trying to remember which fat is the good fat to use in the kitchen? If you are confused about whether to use unsaturated fats, polyunsaturated, monounsaturated or saturated fats when cooking, it's understandable. It can be confusing.

"Saturated fat is a type of fat that solidifies in room temperature," says Dr. Fernandes.
