What oil does Love's Travel Stops fry in?

Love's Travel Stops most likely fries in canola and soybean oil, but the chain has not confirmed it.

In detail: canola/soybean blend (roller grill, fryer, and Fresh Kitchen prep); very little public nutrition data exists for Love's own in-house food program, so PUFA values below are estimated from category anchors, not lab data. Many Love's locations also host co-branded QSRs (Subway, Godfather's Pizza, Chester's Chicken, Arby's, Dunkin, etc.) — those are separate chains with their own menu files and are deliberately EXCLUDED here.

Why 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 Love's Travel Stops report card, or where it lands on the Seed Oil Index. See which chains fry in real fats on Tallow Watch.
