Seed Oils: Industrial Slop Sold as Food

Seed oils dominate every processed aisle because they are cheap to manufacture, not because they nourish.

July 25, 2026 About Seed Oils

Seed oils turned your ancestors' cooking fat into lab sludge.

The Take

Seed oils are not healthy. Slop Score 98.

Canola, soy, and sunflower oils undergo solvent extraction that turns them into oxidized omega-6 sludge. They replaced stable animal fats in the 20th century purely for profit and shelf life.

The Verdict

Skip it. Single-ingredient animal fats nourished humans for millennia while these industrial extracts fuel inflammation and marketing lies.

Slop Score 98.
