There are lots of things like this, that probably aren't that bad in and of themselves, but we get so much exposure to so many of them that the adverse effects accumulate.
To me, the point is that they aren't good for me and other oils are, so whenever possible I want to make the healthier choice.

Probably a good idea. As with everything, the poison is in the dose. I try to eat mostly single ingredient foods, so the odd seed oil doesn't really concern me. I think when you're only eating garbage, it's going to catch up to you eventually.

This is my approach to most things: if I establish the right habits, I don't have to worry about most exceptions.
I also do feel a little bit of outrage towards our toxic food system and that gives me a little more motivation to support these sorts of causes.

I just get sick of all of the fear mongering, usually by influences that just so happen to be selling you the cure.

Since I've been interested in nutrition for a long time, the seed oil problem made a lot of sense to me. Then, as I looked into it more, it seemed more serious than I assumed it would be because I didn't know much about how the oils were processed.
It's basically a combination of bad things that had already been on my radar.
