Usually they are in cottonseed oil...or something similar....

regardless....would you consider this semi-healthy?

Healthy or not, i love 'em and eat them frequently.

Smoked meats contain nitrosamines and nitrosamides. Both are carcinogenic in lab animals.
If you do eat smoked meat you should wash it down with vitamin C and E to help neutralize the nitrites.

I am very leary of cottonseed oil as they use a lot of pesticides on cotton which can typically be found in the seed. I wont eat it. Otherwise,unadulterated oysters, they say are very good for you. I can't get past the gross slime factor.

I am leary of it also:

1) God did not design cotton seeds for our consumption.
2) They have a mild toxin which causes temporary sterility in males.
