How much seed oil is in Wingstop's food?
The average menu item at Wingstop carries an estimated 15.9g of seed oil PUFA.
That is grade F (Extreme Risk) on our A to F scale, and roughly 4.0 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 Wingstop cooks with
Everything is fried in soybean oil (~55% PUFA) — beef-tallow switch rumors are FALSE; buttery dry rubs (lemon pepper, garlic parm) and soybean-oil ranch/blue cheese dips add the most on top.
