Enjoying Seed Oil-Free Mediterranean Cuisine: Your Guide with mm food
Mediterranean restaurants offer vibrant, health-forward dishes bursting with fresh vegetables, lean proteins, and aromatic herbs. Yet for diners avoiding seed oils (like sunflower, canola, or soybean oil), hidden ingredients can turn a nutritious meal into a dietary landmine. Traditional Mediterranean cooking relies on olive oil, but many modern kitchens use cheaper seed oils for frying, dressings, and dips – often without clear labeling. Thankfully, dining out safely is now effortless with the mm food app.
The Hidden Challenge of Seed Oils in Mediterranean Dining
While authentic Mediterranean cuisine celebrates olive oil, contemporary adaptations frequently incorporate seed oils due to cost and high smoke points. These oils lurk in:
- Fried appetizers like calamari or zucchini chips
- Dressings for Greek salads or drizzles over mezze
- Popular dips such as hummus or tzatziki
- Grilled meats and fish basted with oil blends
Without menu transparency, avoiding these inflammatory oils feels like guesswork.
