What oil does Frutta Bowls fry in?
Frutta Bowls has no deep fryer.
In detail: no deep fryer; this is an acai/smoothie bowl and toast concept, so the fat in the food comes from toppings like peanut butter, almond butter, coconut, Nutella, and Greek yogurt or Cocowhip rather than any cooking oil. Expeller-pressed canola oil is in all of the granolas and the protein bites, and the pesto uses olive and canola oil.

Build my orderWhy the frying oil matters
Most fast-food chains fry in seed oils like soybean, canola, corn, or a blend of them, which are high in polyunsaturated fat (PUFA). A handful still use beef tallow or other stable fats, which are far lower in PUFA. The oil a kitchen fries in is the single biggest driver of how much seed oil ends up on your plate. See the full breakdown on the Frutta Bowls report card, or where it lands on the Seed Oil Index. See which chains fry in real fats on Tallow Watch.
