    It is the most toxic of the junk food components commonly consumed. Research shows it contributes as a primary trigger of diabetes, cancer and heart disease, among many other metabolic diseases. This class of seed oils was originally a waste product used for lubricating machinery, but in the '70s it was found to be profitable as a cheap alternative to healthy natural whole fats.

    Beware of the "unnatural" source of canola:

    Well I am happy you are healthy. All I am saying is the science says there is a link. I am sure the deadly combination of high sugar high fat is a large part of it.

    No, the industries say there is a link. See the studies above for the actual science showing not only no link, but a benefit.

    Seed oils + carbs = metabolic disease.

    Artificial meat is no better for you than animal meat. It's almost certainly not worse. Freeing up gobs of farmland for other crops and returning gobs of pastureland to nature or for solar/wind/etc is probably a net good. I like meat, but I recognize the benefits of waning humanity off of it.

    Beware of people who boogeyman single ingredients. Human metabolism is good at breaking stuff down.

    Everything in moderation :)

    I am not going to get into it with someone that talks about the impact of plant agriculture while ignoring the vast amounts grown as animal feed, let alone calling canola oil 'toxic' while ignoring the many actual toxins that are found in meat. You strike me as the kind of person who might advocate a 'cleanse' diet and so on.
