Despite popular belief, virgin olive oils are not good for sautéing since they do not withstand high heats well. Pure olive oil, on the other hand, can, and it's cheaper. Virgin olive oils are meant for tasting, with bread and such.

Grape Oil. Expensive, but withstands high temperatures as well (not any better than olive oil, though).

Know any others?

Aah, those colors make me want to play a Mafia game again...

As for cooking... I like it when I take the time for it. Usually I keep it simple (but healthy [and vegetarian]).
