What oil does Glory Days Grill fry in?
Glory Days Grill fries in beef tallow.
In detail: Beef tallow per the chain ('fried in a shared fryer with beef tallow', glorydaysgrill.com/nutrition). But the fries may use separate gluten-free fryers, and the chain's own Seasoned Fries panel (31 g fat, 4 g saturated, 0 mg cholesterol) carries no tallow, so fries are scored as vegetable oil until the chain confirms. Other fried items use tallow.

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 Glory Days Grill report card, or where it lands on the Seed Oil Index. See which chains fry in real fats on Tallow Watch.
