Seed Oil Scout: Healthy Dining Reviews

by Kangaandherroo

I got a free trial of SeedOilScout recently and opted to be notified when it ended. I was never notified and then was charged for a full year of SeedOilScout (even though the monthly price was advertised.) very disappointed. I then sent an email to the company but never heard back.

As far as SeedOilScout , I am 100% behind their motive, but there’s very little information right now, especially considering it’s a paid app. I live in a top 100 metro area, but there were less than 10 restaurants with info, and only 2 that were considered healthy/seed oil free. I would consider this still in the very early stage of development, which is why I did not want to pay for it after the trial. I am mainly disappointed with the very poor communication and customer service, though.

Had high hopes for SeedOilScout, even though it had a subpar UX. Living in a non health-conscious community, it’s a challenge to find dining options that align with my health values and SeedOilScout was helpful in locating a few good options in the greater area. However, most restaurants had not been reported on and now that everything is behind a paywall SeedOilScout is useless. There’s not nearly enough data available in my area to make a monthly fee worth it. The developers need to spend more time building community before locking everything up. Someone can do this much better, and I’m sure they will.

Verily, I was a fool, for I did naively render assistance unto Seed Oil Scout, unearthing perilous establishments peddling treacherous seed oils. Yet, fate did cast me into the abyss of involuntary disconnection, logging me out and compelling me to yield to the demand of five noble coins ($5) monthly to partake in SeedOilScout's service. Lo, I have taken measures to cast aside SeedOilScout from mine device, for the realm of such lowly peasantry doth not warrant the expenditure of five precious coins from my treasury! Should I wish to dine at an earthly establishment, I could merely summon them by vocal decree, inquiring if their kitchens dabble in witchcraft (food cooked in engine lubricant). Perchance, this horrible decision might have been born after a minimum of twenty-five percent of restaurants across the city were reviewed, only then would SeedOilScout cease its squandering of both my moments and my gold! Henceforth, I curse thee upon my lips, for fire and brimstone shall be given in return!

I hate seed oils and avoid at all costs. Very diligent with every restaurant i go to. I used to use SeedOilScout when it was free. Pretty shotty overall and most of the information is honestly not reliable but it was a cool concept I was happy to support.

When they added the “pro” feature and basically locked everything I was hesitant due to the price being way too high relative to the benefit i had been getting with the free version.

Eventually after a few months I decided to do the free trial to see if the fees resulted in an improvement in the platform - NOPE.

Not only is the information unverified by SeedOilScout and unreliable (saw multiple “green checks” where i know for a fact the places are not safe), they expect users to 100% do all the research for them while paying fees!

I was never notified when my trial period ended as SeedOilScout promised to do, and not only that- they elected to charge me $50 - FIFTY DOLLARS - for an annual pro subscription that I did not ask for!!!

I would’ve been fine paying the $2 per month - i am not price sensitive and want to support awareness of healthy oils - but $50 at once without approval is just outrageous for a borderline useless platform.

Just another organization who claims to carry about public health but keeps everything hidden behind a paywall. When I first downloaded SeedOilScout it was free to use. I found it “somewhat” useful then, and even added a few restaurants I’ve dined at that don’t use seed oils. I didn’t enjoy that the majority of the food joints listed were all “dine shamefully” or “dine cautiously”, most of which were obvious…like fast food places. I had to sift through countless restaurants to find just one that was listed as not using seed oils. I get that that’s because the majority of places DO use seed oils, but maybe just only have the locations that don’t in your database. Even if they only use seed oils for some things, they simply should not qualify. Either way it no longer matters because you can no longer access ANY aspect of SeedOilScout without paying for it. You can’t even bypass the free trial for use of limited features within SeedOilScout . It’s ALL or nothing. I hope this blows up in their faces. You had a good idea, with good intentions, and let greed take over. I get we all have to make money but $9 a month for an app….that’s not even a great app to begin with, just a good idea, is a bit rich for most people’s blood. Deleting SeedOilScout. I hope someone else comes along and does it better without a stupid pay way. Use ads, or something, it’s not that difficult to make it free or affordable if you actually cared about people’s health.

by BTMYWTB

App was pretty good when it first came out. Even though it wasn’t perfect I used it quite often. Now it’s completely unusable without handing them 9 dollars a month lol. Even if you agree that SeedOilScout is worth it, it is your duty to not subscribe. It’s the age where everybody with a mediocre service is asking for a subscription, **** em. We had a pretty nice community, I would go around and ask restaurants what they use to cook with, not that it mattered most the time because restaurants can only be added by the developers/admins.

by Juschris

I was looking forward to a means of making better choices in my dining experiences. I throughly enjoy the info freely given on their IG page. Not the same here!! I can’t even explore the “free” (understandably limited) version before deciding if I want to pay for any upgrades. So now I’ve submitted my email, created an account, and now can’t even explore the possibilities that SeedOilScout may or may not have to offer. I should have read the reviews first.
I will not be emailing support for ideas on fair prices. You actually have my email now if you feel the need to contact me for solutions.

by KremTod

I was charged with full year subscription ,despite, I cancelled SeedOilScout on the last day of my free trial.

I am still waiting to hear about the refund and so far no one has relied my emails on the provided contact emails, but so far I am having a horrible experience , tried two reach them on three different contacts.

I have no intentions to use SeedOilScout as it doesn’t provide much information for the town I live in and the list of restaurants is pretty short. I am very disappointed and feel tricked for paying so much for something I won’t be using.

by Immortalpepsi

This is a phenomenal idea, but the execution is terrible. As soon as I opened SeedOilScout I was hit with a paywall. You literally can’t use any of the features of SeedOilScout without paying for a subscription. The main problem with that, is that anyone trying to use SeedOilScout and eat TRULY healthy cannot afford to pay for this. Eating healthy is already so unbelievably unaffordable in todays society that none of us can afford to pay just to FIND places that serve healthy food. There’s so many methods the developers could use to make SeedOilScout free and still make money, but they’re not gonna do that. It’s literally 10x faster to just google some places in your area that don’t use seed oils, or call ahead and ask the place you want to go to. Eating healthy is a privilege most people will never be able to afford.

by Jane7344

App looked interesting so downloaded it.
But after and intro and even a page comparing the free version to the paid version there was no way to access the free version.

I don’t eat in chain restaurants and I am not in big cities (more rural) and I travel a lot.
I wanted to check if SeedOilScout was of any value to me before paying for it.

After reading the reviews I don’t feel SeedOilScout has much value to me (or people I hang around with that want healthier foods).

A mist is to filter for the level I want - eg no or mostly healthy foods. Weeding thru tons of bad restaurants and chain restaurants to find a place I would eat at is a waste of time and certainly not something I would use (let alone pay for).

Building an app for no seed oil but trying to be everything (eg pasture or wild food etc.) is doomed to failure.

Having members pick only 3 items for the chickens and making the choices so specific (eg pasture for each type of protein) is ridiculous.

Inaccurate info (eg one restaurant in a chain being flagged as using seed oil and all other restaurants in the chain being shown as zero seed oil) shows no checking of crowd sourcing is being done and nothing can be trusted.

Not even worth using SeedOilScout if it was free.

by Kindle Reader88

Tried SeedOilScout but doesn't have much info I my area. Now it's a subscription, deleted. Don't mind to pay but a subscription? This doesn't have nearly enough to be a subscription model. Love the idea of SeedOilScout but needs to go back to drawing board. It never really worked and do restaurants actually care about SeedOilScout? If you eat at any Asian restaurant it's going to be soybean oil or some seed oil no way will they change it because a app said so. SeedOilScout showed places that were obviously going to be seed oil places. There was a restaurant in my area that claims to be EVOO but no one claimed that place to be, so now I have to subscribe to help out with SeedOilScout?

by Daniel_G75

SeedOilScout is now completely worthless if you don’t pay. In what universe do you expect the users to do all the work for crowdsourcing the data, but then also put all the data behind a paywall? It doesn’t take an MBA understand that will reduce the amount of restaurants reviewed, which will in turn make it less likely people pay for SeedOilScout . The functionality of it even if you do pay is still very poor and makes it hard to use. Great idea, poor execution.

by Rdboyz

So, first of all! we do the work by reporting which restaurants has other options of oils to cook with and we also get charge for it is like coming to a supermarket and pick your grocery and also I have to serve as a cashier with no rewards we already doing work Free!. That’s crazy what this world and money has come down to nowadays, can’t trust anyone out here, I do understand development and etc but 35 dollars a year now and not only that the free version is completely unacceptable and unusable. Like SeedOilScout don’t even let you see nothing unless you add a credit card on it a complete scam!
You better off by asking yourself to the restaurant if there’s other alternatives to their cooking.

by MCMLxoxo

The vast majority of reviews for SeedOilScout must be fake. First, it makes you register with an email address to access SeedOilScout , and then once you’re in SeedOilScout , it makes you watch an ad before looking at the information for any restaurant. If you don’t want to watch an ad you can pay five dollars or $40. There are barely any restaurants with reviews or reports. And there is really no way to tell that the reports for restaurants are accurate. I would not trust the information in SeedOilScout at all. Don’t waste your time on it.

by BluBufu

I wish it didn’t make me go through a test just to paywall me. Feels sneaky and disingenuous. If there isn’t a free version then they need to specify that instead of making you give all this information, to then, potentially waste your time. The price isn’t bad but I just hate businesses that aren’t up front. Yes, the description brings up that there is a subscription, but it doesn’t say that it’s the only capable way of using SeedOilScout . Please specify that there isn’t a free version and that this is solely a subscription based app. I think a lot of people are being misled (especially from the ad I saw). I think had I known the process before, I would’ve considered paying.

by Jilldrenofthegrave

I was using SeedOilScout since the beginning, took my time to contact a few restaurants and contribute to SeedOilScout , and now they want me to pay a monthly fee (and not an especially small fee) for the privilege of using it?! Yeah right. I don’t live in a large city, there were hardly any restaurants on here with thorough data to begin with, and I make 99% of my meals at home, so why on earth would I pay a ridiculous monthly fee?! Too bad. It was a nice concept.

by Adrianita A

I was very intrigued by SeedOilScout since It came across in IG and everyone should be aware of the places around them that use seed oil. ( seed oil, canola oil, sunflower and more are extremely bad for you). So I decided to get SeedOilScout to check if the restaurants I’ve been going or planning to go around me are using those specific oils. I downloaded it and it started off pretty good asking about your preferences and allergies. Then it took me to a payment plan and I didn’t want to pay so I closed SeedOilScout and return and then I tried to use the other options but it would always take me back to the free trial option. Everyone don’t waste your time and money! Many ppl have said that even when they try the free trial and pay for SeedOilScout it still doesn’t work.
I prefer to go on local fats in safari. So much easier and free.

by Fixthe Nickname

Feels like a total money grab. Really didn’t add any value, I downloaded SeedOilScout on vacation and it showed zero info for any restaurants in the town we were staying. It said it was free to use but before I could use it had to sign up for a free trial and provide payment details which would be charged for a year subscription after 7 day trial. You can't even bypass the free trial for use of limited features within SeedOilScout . Worst part is it is challenging to cancel and you can’t even do it within SeedOilScout , definitely by design and driven by greed, not truly trying to help people. I was trying to cancel and was unable to before 7 day trial and card was automatically charged for $37. I tried reaching out to them and got zero response, honestly feels like a super slimy business model. Very disappointed. Todays day and age I think we should all strive to be better. Hope they die off.

by SkyBlissRein

To start off with, SeedOilScout itself hardly has any restaurants that actually cater to your dietary restrictions or preferences. Would not recommend. Secondly I have tired to contact this business time and time again about getting a refund on SeedOilScout that I did not use, I did not find helpful nor did I like. I deleted SeedOilScout almost immediately and it still charged me even after I tried to cancel my subscription. I’ve tried to contact this company on their email, their Instagram, where they have continued to receive my messages but ignore and make posts & stories. And now, I’m leaving an email in hopes that they’ll respond since I saw them respond to other reviews! On their Instagram if you scroll down to certain posts you can see them respond horribly to other commenters. I’ve reported this company to the BBB.

by Christina325!

Used to be a great app and used it all the time . Some of the updates seem more glitchy and are a pain. Now I cant click on any of the restaurants to even see the names. Health information should be free. Useless unless you pay now. I can’t even watch adds to see the restaurant names

Not enough information or users to be worth paying for and too glitchy to be worth paying for. Very disappointed

by BlindMango

Months ago this was a fantastic app to use, you could fly around the map and look for restaurants and places to eat at. Then they started heavily integrating a monthly subscription program into every single facet of SeedOilScout . The “free version” of SeedOilScout is completely unusable as everything you tap on is just an add to pay them monthly.

And this is yet another example of an app developer not at all understanding how to charge for their app and what most people would be willing to pay. I would be happy to pay for your app, but I’m not going to pay as much as I do for a streaming service monthly for SeedOilScout which I may check in on a couple times a month? I would be more than happy to pay a one time $30 payment or something though, but there’s no option. So I guess I just won’t use SeedOilScout anymore

by The_Garbage_Collector

The payment model doesn’t sit right with an app like this. I love the idea of being able to locate all the seed oil free restaurants in my area. People should know this info!

Your users help you get restaurants added to your database however, now you are asking them to pay $5/month to view the list of safe restaurants? If you don’t want to pay, you can watch a few ads via a clunky popup that doesn’t work. It’s great info but not worth the money. Especially since there aren’t a lot of users adopting it in my area.

by Emilaus

Downloaded this a while back & seemed like a good idea, but maps don’t show that many. More of the bad restaurants than good with useless info. It should Just show the good rather than demonize businesses others.

Used to show all the info but now they want $$$ for info monthly or yearly. Not worth it for me. I certainly am not going across state just to eat at a no seed oil restaurant that only may have salads. Make your own.

Bottom line, I feel SeedOilScout is too “green” in the market to be charging as it’s not like there is a plethora of dinning options/places offered. Massachusetts alone has just a few and South Carolina has just couple choices. Eating out is a bad choice in itself anyway :) so why not just eat what you want.

If your going out, just go out and try to make healthier choices. Me? I go out and get what I want. We all know fried stuff is bad anyway, seed oil or not…..am deleting SeedOilScout , don’t waste your money.

by September71

It’s a great concept. Seed oils are definitely something to avoid whenever possible. The problem is that unless you’re subbed, SeedOilScout is useless. If you’re not paying, you can only see the markers of which restaurants are rated in SeedOilScout but ZERO other info is available. If there’s no info available for free members then why have it at all? They should just make SeedOilScout $3 to download and be done with it. When I first downloaded it, I got a free week and it was awesome! When that expired SeedOilScout just became a useless file that’s taking up space on my phone. I know they’re profiting because they sent out an email recently saying they’re hiring multiple positions in the company. I’m not against them making money, it just seems pointless to even have a free version. They seriously need to rethink their business model.

by CNDFit

I was came across SeedOilScout because I’m currently making changes in my life when it comes to healthy eating. I really liked the interface of SeedOilScout and how many options it listed, however, I am choosing to not use SeedOilScout because the creator chose to list the overly processed food eateries as “dine shamefully.” As someone who is trying to recover from disordered eating and already carries some shame with food, this is highly unacceptable. ALSO, a lot of people may not be able to afford eating at places that don’t use any seed oils and only use organic ingredients, and their struggles are not shameful. PLEASE change this feature.

by Rerootedinhealth

Since this is by user there’s not a lot of info. Every time I go somewhere new even in a new state there’s no reviews on anything. Idk if that’s because so many places use seed oils or so many people don’t care but I wish there was someone scoping out all the restaurants and putting actual info out there. SeedOilScout doesn’t provide much as of right now. Hopefully that Changes as the word gets out

by Anon17377472

I love the idea of SeedOilScout and hope it catches on but this was a total waste of time for me. It has you go through tons of screens to “customize” your experience before throwing a $100 (!?!) sub prompt at you. That is way too much for an app like this. The custom options didn’t even seem to make any sort of difference on my search results.

There was exactly one decent option in KC (2.5 million pop metro) so it’s very limited in the midwest. Setting filters will filter on the map but not in list view. I’ll try it again in future but the $99 really put me off of it.

by Lentiggini1

SeedOilScout is doing really important work. But the information should be freely accessible to the masses. Making healthy choices should not be saved for people who can afford it. Please consider advertisements for a free-to-access option and then a paid service if people want it ad free. I know these apps aren’t free to run but it’s really disappointing to see valuable information being hidden from people who may not be able to afford it. Even at the low cost.

by Marzano3311

The concept is great but there just aren’t enough seed oil safe restaurants A) to charge for SeedOilScout and B) to depend on this as a means for actually locating seed oil safe restaurants. In the entire DFW area there’s a store that doesn’t even serve food, a couple bakeries, a sushi shop and a pizza chain. The pizza chain has a flag by someone as they have products with soybean oil yet the flag only shows up on the single location despite it being a chain. The restaurant with the flag still shows up as a green star restaurant. I’ve yet to see an actual blue verified restaurant on the map, which to the credit of SeedOilScout it’s not their fault if it doesn’t exist but they are charging for a service so I’d expect to have SeedOilScout render something useful.

by Reaper_7

I live in a medium sized city, surrounded by small towns—so for me, SeedOilScout is almost useless. That is unless I’m traveling somewhere. This being said, i don’t travel to large cities that often so I wish there was a version with ads or some kind of program where you can use it for free as long as you add content to SeedOilScout . Seems like a crowd source necessary app like this shouldn’t have a pay wall. Great concept, just needs some refinement. It’s presently not worth the cost

by Yousuckyousuckyousuck

This would be an essential app to have, given how broken our food chain is and how deeply seed oils and other dangerous ingredients have permeated our supply. However, the PAYWALL is unnecessary. We and our families want to eat safely and happily, and already unfortunately pay a premium to do so. So a monthly fee to see the basic breakdown of any given restaurant is ridiculous to me.

by A Russ 15

I have been a long time user of SeedOilScout. I have contributed over 50 reviews and comtacted so many local restaurants to discuss oils with them to help myself understand my risks eating out and SeedOilScout was a wonderful way to share that knowledge and help others. Key word is WAS. They now charge you to use a crowd sourced app. I would 10 out of 10 times prefer viewing ads over paying for an app that is supposed to be bringing these ideas and mentality about seed oils to the public. Now it just seems like a private group that you have to pay to be a part of. Super disappointed in where this has gone

by Thejessicajourney

SeedOilScout is really innovative and provides so much information about all the restaurants using oils. The price they want for SeedOilScout is on the pricey side, especially compared to similar apps like Yuka ($8 a year), the seed app is $35 a year. SeedOilScout has a template to send to restaurants which are not on SeedOilScout currently to find out info if they use oils. So we, as app users, are helping them fill in the information to expand their app. I feel like since we are having to do this work, we shouldn’t have to pay to use it.

by Dregs Stray

Pretty solid idea for an app and it’s for sure a work in progress. Really they need to add a function where we can submit restaurants that don’t have seed oils because the closest one on the map for me is like 200 miles and I know of about 4 places that are within walking distance that cook without seed oils. I really don’t see SeedOilScout ever working unless this function is added but still a useful tool. I’m glad people are finally making a stand against this epidemic. Can’t wait to see where SeedOilScout goes

by Paladin305

I found SeedOilScout very useful during the trial, so I’ve subscribed to it for a year to see how it holds up long-term. So far it’s very informative with the seed oil information, but SeedOilScout itself needs some major technical upheaval to be more usable. It doesn't seem to be a native app, which usually isn’t the end of the world, but some functionality (pasting text, clicking buttons) can be very sluggish and janky. I’d love to see this improved at some point, but it does serve its purpose well and is quite well-informed about local establishments. Looking forward to see what future development brings!

SeedOilScout is critically important to those that understand the dangers of machines lubricants AKA seed oils. Download and use SeedOilScout to understand which restaurants are poisoning people. Love the ability to quickly email restaurants with a ready to go format you can copy and paste. You don’t even need to search for emails SeedOilScout takes you right to the contact us page for a restaurant. As more people use SeedOilScout and post reviews restaurant’s will be forced to change as the negative reviews grow. App works as advertised. Easy 5 stars. Won’t go out to eat without opening Seed Oil Scout first. Keep emailing and posting reviews everyone. We can change the food system overtime!

by Slyqat4

If you have decided to take control of your health and stop eating non-food poisons like soybean oil, canola oil, cottonseed oil, soy, etc... you know how challenging it is to dine out. Most of us cook at home every night because its too much of a hassle trying to find a restaurant that doesn't use nasty seed oils. SeedOilScout has been helpful for us on those nights when we don't want to cook! Obviously you'll find more information in heavily populated areas, but the amount of restaurants banning seed oils from their menus is growing every day! We found quite a few places that were safe to eat in California thanks to SeedOilScout.

by Hgregs

The purpose of it is to identify seed oils in restaurants and I love how they have it set up. Which is why I give it 5 stars.

Recommendation / request: I know along with many others, my sensitivity to seed oils is accompanied by many other sensitivities. I try to opt for organic, and I cannot have preservatives. While that preference can be marked, I am not able to find that information on any of the restaurants in my area (Hampton Roads Area, Virginia).

I would love the concept of SeedOilScout to be extrapolated. Have an option to show only restaurants that meet your “must haves,” an option for “must haves and pluses,” and “just the basics” which would be the bare minimum needs.

I hope SeedOilScout takes off and expands! Apps like this will also bring attention to the health conscious community and their demands. Wonderful!

by Rowan 🤭

i'm going on a trip with my mom to NYC very soon, and i want to avoid toxic seed oils at all cost for the health and wellness of myself and my mother. there's no app out there that does this! i'm so excited to go on this trip and have some peace of mind, not to mention peace with my body too! the only thing i dislike is the fact that there is a tapping limit for the day, but i guess it helped me stay off my phone. i was just trying to plan out where to eat yesterday, and i reached the tapping limit, so i had to wait until today. otherwise, i really love and appreciate SeedOilScout. thank you to the creator/s for caring about our health :)

by Buffbuff99

Let me start by saying this will save you time & stress while giving you ease of mind. They go through great lengths to provide options for safe eating for those who seek to protect their bodies from disease inducing ingredients used in almost every fast food chain & restaurant. Ive saved so much time & energy otherwise spent doing research to see through the fancy green signs & promising lingo intended to deceive consoomers into eating seed oils. I love SOS worth every bit of investment!

by HeatherLynn94

If my review was based on an established app and it’s capabilities, I’d more so give it four stars. But since it’s new and just needs time to develop, I’m happy to give five stars.

I’m constantly calling and emailing to find out info that a lot of people are now entering into SeedOilScout. I do have trust issues though, so tend to need to see visual proof and double check when I’m at the restaurant. Which is still better than me calling and emailing in advance.

This just needs time to have more people adding info, which I am more than happy to contribute to! Overall, the ability to see ratings and reviews is a huge help for me.

by Bobsy Boo

SeedOilScout is a much-needed response to the seed oil epidemic. With it, you can put your money where your mouth is and patronize businesses whose ingredients won’t negatively alter your hormones. By no means is SeedOilScout perfect, and this is to be expected given its novelty, but I have no doubts SeedOilScout will continue to improve, especially as its popularity and user base grows. I’m excited to see where SeedOilScout will go and how it may help spread awareness of the dangers of seed oils and other unhealthy and toxic ingredients / practices.

by Barryc4

SeedOilScout is a must for anyone who cares about their health. It is great being able to easily find out which restaurants near me are safe & makes finding healthy food on vacation super easy. Most of the seed oil free places I’ve found on here also have delicious food too, so it’s a double win. I look forward to SeedOilScout becoming more popular and getting even better.

by RBH5

Unfortunately it is hard to find a restaurateur that avoids using those nasty inflammatory seed oils. SeedOilScout can truly help those looking for the healthiest options as well as change the way restaurants source their ingredients if they want to keep loyal health conscious clients. Need to spread the word so the list of restaurants the service covers can grow!

by Deanok Dk

I am new to switching over to a non-vegetable “seed oil” plan with no soy and lowest sugar possible foods. I think SeedOilScout will be something I use often when going out to eat wherever I am. Great tool and I look forward to seeing it become a staple for everyone and changing the way restaurants change back over to healthy fats vs vegetable oils!

by Chef Lowe

This is just SeedOilScout I have needed to have on my phone for a while now. It is a great resource to be able to check my favorite resultants and see how healthy they really are. Can’t wait to use this more and more as restaurants continue to be added and updated.

by MamaMia10106

what an amazing app I am so excited to feel like I have a little bit of control on the food I’m enjoying at local restaurants I love to support ! now I can continue on the mission of spreading the word about inflammatory seed oils & promoting change in the food & beverage industry & the health of my community !

by Jhorse89

This is how you shift the paradigm in healthy eating, to be aware of what restaurants use certain ingredients. We have to do better as society when it comes to our health. This is not a cult, this is just for empowerment and awareness. this is not to bash or discredit restaurants. Different strokes, different folks.

by ARK-71

I mostly cook at home, because I now how awful processed foods are for your body. It's nice to be able to take a trip somewhere and have a close to homemade meal. Also to be cooked for every now and again. Thank you

by Krzenites

how do you been having major health issues and being told I need to watch what oils are used hoping this takes off and more people start helping to grow this site

by TaterTotSarasota

I am so happy I found SeedOilScout. Finding seed oil free restaurants is like finding a needle in a haystack. SeedOilScout is amazing. I know it's going to catch on because people are going to wake up and discover that they're eating poison 24/ when they consume seed oils . Thank you for creating SeedOilScout. Looking forward to opening a seed oil free "fast food" chain myself so everyone has a chance to eat poison free food on the go :).

by TopAppReviewer421

People should not be eating gasoline, erm I mean “seed oils”. We need SeedOilScout to spread that message. I live in a city of 500K people and I can literally count on one hand how many restaurants only cook with real fats. It’s a crime that seed oils are everywhere. No one should be putting those toxins in their bodies. We have a long way to go, but SeedOilScout gives me hope for a healthier future.

I used to think never eating at a restaurant again was a requirement for avoiding seed oils, and solving that issue alone makes SeedOilScout priceless for me. My only wish were that it was more prevalent. If you live in NYC you’re set with tons of “Dine Fearlessly” options, but in my hometown Las Vegas we can only go to the single option so many times lol.

SeedOilScout changes the way I look for a place to go eat. As I watch what I eat but also love going out, the most important thing to me when eating out is avoiding seed oils. This takes hours of leg work out of the process for me!

Finally some information on which restaurants use seed oil in everything or those that cook with safe oils. Can’t wait as it becomes more popular and additional places get added!

Great app, uses good information and can really help with one’s specific, healthy diet. It’s new right now so not too many restaurants rated yet, but when it’s up and running fully can’t wait to find where to eat.

An app like this is so needed! As more and more people become awakened to the health issues caused by seed oils in basically everything the market must respond and consumers must join together to demand healthier oil choices or take our money elsewhere

It’s way for extensive than I thought when purchasing SeedOilScout . I appreciate now restaurants are rated so you know you can go eat with caution or enjoy without worry. Makes picking dining much easier being able to pull SeedOilScout up and see what’s around. This is great!!! Looking forward to more restaurants being added.

Thank goodness this exists. Sees oils are a major problem for health. They are inflammatory and can have unwanted harmful chemicals. My experience on SeedOilScout has led me to great restaurants that are much more mindful of ingredients. I’m happy to pay 2ish$ a month for no stomach aches after eating out. Eating with a happy body and mind makes the food experience much more satisfying.
