How much seed oil is in Metro Diner's food?
The average menu item at Metro Diner carries an estimated 10.0g of seed oil PUFA.
That is grade D (Very High Risk) on our A to F scale, and roughly 2.5 days of the 4g daily goal many people in the seed oil free community aim for, in one average item. Method and grade scale on the methodology page.
What Metro Diner cooks with
fries/griddles in vegetable and/or canola oil per customer allergy-guide reports (findmeglutenfree.com); exact blend not published by Metro Diner, so assumed soybean-leaning vegetable oil for the fried items (higher-PUFA-wins)
