Frequently asked
Does Giggling Squid UK use seed oils?
Based on our menu research, Giggling Squid UK cooks with: rapeseed oil and vegetable oil blend. Across the 140 menu items we analyzed, it averages 3.8g estimated PUFA per item, earning a seed-oil grade of A (Low Risk).
What oil does Giggling Squid UK cook with?
Our research indicates: rapeseed / blended vegetable oil in the woks and deep fryers (the UK kitchen default, and the oil Giggling Squid's own published Pad Thai method calls for); the deep-fried starters (salt & pepper squid, crispy squid bits, salt & pepper chilli mushrooms, giggling wings, spring rolls, money bags, prawn crackers) and the twice-cooked Sticky Chicken carry the most PUFA, and the wok-fried noodle dishes add more from the oil plus crushed peanuts and cashews; the coconut-milk curries (green, red, massaman, paneang) are mostly saturated fat from the coconut cream so they score much lower, and plain jasmine/sticky rice and the steamed greens score near zero. Peanut satay sauce and cashew dishes are the other PUFA source. Preparation can vary by location, so treat PUFA numbers as estimates.

What are seed oils?
Seed oils — canola, soybean, sunflower, corn, and similar vegetable oils — are extracted from seeds using high heat and chemical solvents. They are very high in polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs), which are unstable at cooking temperatures and can oxidize easily. Many health-conscious eaters choose to minimize seed oils and prefer foods cooked in beef tallow, butter, coconut oil, or olive oil instead. This page shows estimated PUFA grams per menu item to help you make more informed choices. These are estimates — actual values vary by preparation and location. New to the topic?
