The basic difference between fats and oils, as most people know, is that fats are solid at room temperature while oils are liquid. However, room temperature does vary from place to place and according to the season. Just because your butter is a mess at 38*c, does not mean itâs an oil. So, donât fool yourself!
For example, animal fats tallow and lard are high in saturated fatty acid content and are solids. Olive and linseed oils on the other hand are unsaturated and liquid. Fats serve both as energy sources for the body, and as stores for energy in excess of what the body needs immediately. Each gram of fat when burned or metabolized releases about 9 food calories (37 kJ = 8.8 kcal).
