The fried food industry may be about to go through a much-needed revolution. We all know it tastes great, but it isn’t good for our weight or our arteries. It’s also carcinogenic, because oil in restaurants and cafes gets reused hundreds of times and degrades with every use.

Finally, we may be able to eat our French fries in peace. Read about Beyond Oil here.
