What are your thoughts on pumpkin seed oil? It looks like motor oil but is absolutely delicious.

Varangy,
From the little I can find on the fat breakdown of pumpkin seed oil, it looks to have about a 3:1 ratio of omega-6:omega-3, which isn’t bad. It’s highly polyunsaturated, so I’d say to use it sparingly and never cook with it.
Hope that helps
Scott
