What does seed-oil-free mean?

Seed-oil-free restaurants do not use any industrial seed oils — canola, soybean, sunflower, corn, cottonseed, safflower, or grapeseed oil — cooking exclusively with traditional fats like tallow, lard, butter, ghee, duck fat, olive oil, coconut oil, or avocado oil.

Why do people avoid seed oils in restaurants?

Industrial seed oils are highly processed, high in omega-6 polyunsaturated fats, and can oxidize easily at cooking temperatures. Many people seeking to reduce inflammation look for restaurants using traditional fats instead.

How do I know if a restaurant is truly seed-oil-free?

Ask the restaurant directly what oil they cook with. LocalFats.com lists restaurants specifically identified as using alternative fats instead of seed oils — click any listing to see their confirmed cooking fats.
