While I have covered the direct uses of oil in my diet, it is important to note that oil plays a secondary role in my diet as well. These are some of the factors that I forgot to mention but are worth giving a thought. 

Other uses: 

• Synthetic fertilizers and pesticides 
• Lubricants (motor oil) 
• Synthetic rubber 
• Petrochemicals in flavoring, coloring, and preservatives. 
• Plastic bags 
• Styrofoam
• Trash bags 
• Gas stove 
• Asphalt and bitumen (roads)

End note:

I hope this blog serves its purpose in highlighting the use of oil in our everyday lives.
