Consider hemp seed
Hemp seed oil is a rising star in the world of specialty oils, primarily due to its flavor and perfect balance of essential fatty acids, including omega-3 and omega-6.
In addition to its gamma-linolenic acid and stearidonic acid metabolites, hemp seed oil offers a nutty flavor profile, making it a suitable addition to salad dressings, juices, smoothies, protein shakes and other dishes.

Squeezing macadamias
Amarante Organic Macadamia Nut Oil is made from macadamia nuts hand selected, cold-pressed, double-filtered then packaged.

It contains no trans fats, has a 1:1 ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, and a high smoke point of 400°F.
