Frequently asked

Does Tim Hortons UK use seed oils?

What oil does Tim Hortons UK cook with?

Our research indicates: rapeseed-led vegetable oil in the fryers (savoury side), with sunflower likely in the supplier par-fry blend — Tim Hortons UK does not state the oil, but its own published nutrition rules out palm and tallow: Lattice Fries are 14g fat with only 1.2g saturates per 129g serving (~9% saturates) and the Hash Brown is 5.3g fat with 0.19g saturates (~4%), which only fits a rapeseed/sunflower blend. Donuts and Timbits run on a completely different fat: palm-based shortening — Old Fashioned Glazed Donut is 13g fat of which 5.9g saturates (~45%), and Boston Cream is 11g fat of which 5.1g saturates (~46%), the signature of palm frying, so the bakery case is far lower in PUFA than the fryer menu.
