Neither are good options. Both have low smoke points that will easily become rancid and oxidize when heating to the high temperatures needed for cooking.

The best oils to cook with are macadamia nut oil, avocado oil and coconut oil. All 3 have significant health benefits and very high smoke points. You can cook and fry with the oils with no risk of the oils becoming rancid.
