Ah yes seed oils bad, as supposed to… what? Animal fat? Butter?

Like, I’m sorry, olive oil counts as a seed oil if half the things mentioned are seed oils.

Anything without a dead animal isn’t “real” because unnecessary animal abuse is always the answer.

He literally fried a turkey in beef tallow on Thanksgiving. Yes, he wants animal fats because he's a moron.

To be fair, part of his brain was literally eaten through, itself...

That's sort of what I was thinking: aren't all oils from seeds?

Except for peanut as peanuts are bizarre. I think olives are fruit.

“Seed oils” is used by this crowd of wackos to refer to a bunch of oils that aren’t from seeds, like palm oil which comes from the fruit of the oil palm. The actual definition is stuff like sesame, sunflower, and rapeseed oil, but these people use it to mean basically any thing that is commonly used.
