 If people are associating seed oils with fried foods, potato chips, other fast foods, etc... then yes, get rid of that stuff.  But it's not IMHO the seed oil itself, it is how that oil is used, brought far above 200C causing it to partially transform into trans-fats, being put in contact with starches which then create acrylamide, etc.  Deep fried is deadly.

But if you put seed oil on a salad, or eat sunflower seeds, or even saute with a seed oil (saute stays below boiling), IMHO they are fine (and we can disagree, I'm fine with disagreement).

Anyhow, maybe that distinction makes a difference. 
 The potato chips I'm refering to are made in avocado oil 
 I didn't know that was done.
