Here's a breakdown:
* Fats are typically solid at room temperature and come from animal sources like butter, lard, and tallow.
* Oils are typically liquid at room temperature and come from plant sources like olive oil, sunflower oil, and canola oil.
Both fats and oils are composed of triglycerides, which are molecules made up of glycerol and three fatty acid chains. The type of fatty acids in a triglyceride determines its physical properties (solid or liquid) and its health effects.
