lol i know there isn't a lot of cyanide in the seeds but there is some seems like intentionally eating them could be bad long term

Nah, your body gets rid of cyanide very quickly and you'd have to eat at least 15 apples in a single sitting before it even begins to do anything. This is assuming you're some kind of weird psycho who thoroughly chews each seed instead of just swallowing them like a regular psycho — in which case, they would go out exactly as they came in and release no cyanide whatsoever.
