Every single recipe nowadays calls for avocado oil, but I see no advantages compared with virgin olive oil for salads or sunflower oil for cooking, and that's even if the avocado oil isn't 1) rancid or 2) soybean oil wearing a hat and moustache. Plus, aren't avocados notoriously water intensive and bad for the environment? Save them for eating, I say.

I would assume the oil is made from the seed which is probably a waste product anyways if you’re making processed avocado products
