Texas Roadhouse publishes a component-level ingredient database and it names the fryer outright: "Creamy Soy Fry Oil" is hydrogenated soybean oil with TBHQ and dimethylpolysiloxane. The free rolls are made with solid margarine, the buttery spread on them is palm and soybean oil, the sirloin seasoning contains soybean oil and MSG, and every creamy dressing is built on a soybean-oil mayonnaise - so even a plain steak arrives seasoned and buttered with one. The plain sides are genuinely clean: baked potatoes, steamed vegetables and the raw produce carry nothing.
