Dave's Salad Chopstick Anecdote
- Dave Chang prefers eating salads with chopsticks for precision rather than the blunt stabbing of a fork.
- He finds chopsticks allow you to pick small components like nuts or seeds more effectively in modern salads.

- Seed oils contain polyunsaturated fats with multiple double bonds that break down more easily when heated.
- However, current science does not conclusively deem seed oils harmful; much of the anti-seed oil claims lack solid evidence.

- The main risk with seed oils arises when they are reused multiple times at high heat, causing formation of harmful compounds.
- Most home cooking and restaurants change oils frequently enough to minimize this risk.
