My husband and I are scheduling a short trip to visit friends this month. I’m a planner, which means I’ve been busy reading restaurant menus online and compiling a list of any that look promising for vegan dining. I wasn’t surprised to see that several restaurants boast that none of their dishes contain seed oils.
It’s not my first personal run-in with the anti-seed oil crowd. At a recent gathering, a family member recoiled in absolute horror when I handed her a bottle of canola oil for a dish she was making. I couldn’t convince her that it was safe to use. Instead, she waited until she could get to the store to buy olive oil.
