The Oil Dilemma: A Deep Dive into Diet and Discourse

This chapter explores the surge in vegetable oil consumption in the U.S. and its discord with traditional human diets, particularly examining the effects of polyunsaturated fats on fat cells. It critiques the reliance on anecdotal evidence in dietary discussions, especially regarding the carnivore diet, while questioning the transparency of health claims made by notable figures. Additionally, the chapter humorously addresses the absurdities of online personas and the conflicting identities between social media and real-life masculinity.
