I've never heard of anything bad in flax seeds, but I agree with you
about the taste.  I don't eat them very often because of that.  There are
many foods with EFA's, and EPA may be overrated.  Anyway, I don't seem to
need it.  At one time, though, I did take a lot of flax oil as a
supplement (tastes better than the whole seeds).  The longer you've been
on a terrible cooked-fat diet, the more you need that stuff.
