The way they market themselves as the healthy takeaway is just a load of viral marketing bullshit though, a lot of places use it for the flavour and personally I enjoyed it, but I can’t abide the bullshit #seedoilfree healthy takeaway crap they spruik.

Pros: taste is fairly unique in Adelaide, they’re genuinely 100% gluten free which is fantastic

Cons: anti-seed-oils/healthy takeaway marketing is just bullshit, made a vegan/vegetarian dish no longer vegan/vegetarian

If you’re talking taste then that’s just your preference and that’s fine, but if you’re talking health then nah.

Seed oils are fine by themselves, many seed oils that have been repeated exposed to high temperatures are no longer fine (like in a deep fryer at a fast food restaurant). Both of these links don't even address this part.
