Is Grilled cheese made with seed oils?

Depends

Often clean, but the griddle fat varies

Grilled cheese made with real butter is a clean option. Some diners and delis use a liquid margarine blend on the griddle instead, which the tracker estimates can push a sandwich to around 4g of PUFA.

How to keep it seed-oil-free

Ask if they grill it in real butter, or make it at home in butter for a cleaner version.
