Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

64% butter. And rapeseed oil. Bleh and IMO seed oils are bad for you.

I don't think these oils are bad for you, but if I buy butter I want butter.

The debate is raging but I'm firmly in the bad camp. We did not evolve eating these seed oils.

We didn't evolve to do a lot of things. Sitting, for example. Or living indoors.

That's not a good reason to not do / use something.

When it comes to our food intake (how we fuel and build our bodies), yes it a good indicator. Then you can look at the Omega 6 content too and all the literature on that, inflammation, oxidation, etc.
