Damn, they sure asked me a lot of questions I had to lie about. Only a 3 day free trial as well. I'm just going to bring my stronger glasses to the grocery I guess.

I can't read the fine print on labels anymore. My thing is you kind of just know looking at the bottle or packaging. I do think most patnetters are above average intelligence at minimum. You know when you look at a product if it's trash or not.
I'm not sitting in a store that I can't read labels on by design. We all know what is trash. Don't buy it.

I'm nearsighted, so that's an advantage here. I just take off my glasses and can read labels very well.
Mostly I'm just trying to avoid rapeseed oil, aka "Canola" oil. I like challenges. That shit is everywhere. Even in otherwise fine bread, as an ingredient low down on the list, since it's so toxic that it works as a preservative too. "A floor polish and a dessert topping!" (For those who remember the old SNL)
Similar challenge in trying to live a 100% Google-free life. Google is the Canola oil of the internet. Toxic and everywhere.

Also trying to avoid installing any app.
The only reason apps exist is to take power away from you and spy on you.
Just about everything any app can do can also now be done via a web page that requires no install and is much, much more under your explicit control.

Which of them are worth avoiding entirely?
Here are the fats and oils I think are bad:
- margarine (which is just canola and other crap oils hardened to make them stick in your arteries better)
- canola oil
- cottonseed oil (especially bad)
- palm kernel oil
I'm undecided about these:
- soybean oil
- sunflower seed oil
- avocado oil
- coconut oil
- peanut oil
I'm sure these are pretty good for you:
- olive oil
- butter
- lard (yes, I think lard is OK to eat)
