Seed oils are the worst for you.
Coconut and Olive oil are the only oils you can drink. I drink olive oil daily. It's a good oil. Good for you. Yes you can drink it. If it is good quality olive oil, it's delicious. Dip crusty bread in olive oil with some garlic. warm it in a pan.
You forget how the Som Tom makers taste their food. I have seen, more times than not, a fat Thai women run her finger along the Mortar, and then she adjusts the ingredients. She will do this over and over. Hep C, anyone?
The GF bought deep-fried seafood that smelled rancid. I've told her countless times that if the food is dripping in oil or looks like an oil sponge, pass it. It was improperly cooked. The oil wasn't hot enough.
Full stop.
This happens with almost all the fried food she brings back.
I have repeatedly asked my girlfriend to stop buying oil-soaked food. She brought back badly fried food last night. The oil smells off. I used several paper towels to soak up the oil.
It isn't coconut oil. It's not olive oil. It's crap vegetable oil.
There are no vegetables in the oil.
You have a knack for ignoring the original post, writing volumes of characters, and you say nothing. You answer nothing. Are you so absorbed with your virtue signaling that you have to do this and yet not address anything in the original post?
What a waste.
I don't want anything fried on the street. The Thais use cheap oil that isn't healthy. They tend to either burn the oils, which are usually vegetable oil, or fry the food but the oil is not hot enough. I told the GF not to bring home anything fried anymore. When I need sheets of paper towels just to sop up what drips from the food, it is too much.
Oh no! It will take them out of the running for Pattaya t,he compassionate city.
"Hey Somchai, let's go find some people who haven't eaten and are begging for food, and we can have some fun."
