What oil does Milano's Pizza (Gaithersburg, MD) fry in?
Milano's Pizza (Gaithersburg, MD) most likely fries in vegetable oil blend, but the chain has not confirmed it.
In detail: Vegetable oil (assumed, not disclosed). Milano's Pizza at 16123 Shady Grove Rd, Gaithersburg, MD is an independent restaurant (not part of a chain) that publishes no nutrition and does not name its cooking or frying oil, so fried food (fries, wings, tenders, breaded sides) and the oil in its dough are scored as an unnamed vegetable oil, our assumption. Olive oil is counted only where its menu names it. Most of the fat on its pizzas, calzones and subs is cheese and cured meat. Portions are not printed, so each serving line says what we assumed (pizza sizes in inches, sub lengths, piece counts). Every value for this restaurant is an estimate.

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 Milano's Pizza (Gaithersburg, MD) report card, or where it lands on the Seed Oil Index. See which chains fry in real fats on Tallow Watch.
