Excuse my ignorance, but I'm not sure I understand the
original question. What would be the relevency of oil
in a Paleo diet? Because Teflon didn't exist yet? Or
Oil of Olay?

OK, OK, I'm being facetious. But the point remains. I
can see no "need" for oil in a primitive culture or
diet. If there is one, someone please enlighten me.
