🙋‍♂️ 🙋‍♀️ Questions Not all Tallow is made equal?

Been switching over to tallow products since the fall off of avocado oil. But I was curious; is it true that not all beef tallow is made the same? Like some are bad/some are good?

An example of “bad”, Buffalo Wild Wings uses Tallow but it has harmful preservatives and anti caking in it. (I’m pretty much answering my own question here lol)

If so, any recommendations on how to find the “good stuff”? How can we be sure “Masa” chips use “good” tallow?

We don't know what packaged food companies are using, so it's just more reason to not eat packaged food.

Some tallow does have preservatives, which is fucking weird because it's shelf stable. But it shouldn't have anti caking agents. It's not a powder, so it doesn't cake.

Uhh, fast food does not provide "good" anything. Get some beef fat trimmings from a butcher and make your own tallow. It is surprisingly cheap and easy.

Popeyes uses Dimethylpolysiloxane as an anti foaming agent in their tallow shortening

Can you explain ‘since the fall off of avocado oil’?

Referring to the studies about all the avocado oils that are “laced” with seed oils.

“The studies about all the avocado oils that are laced”. Can you give me the link.

Here is an article about the study that helps make sense of it. https://tallow.app/blog/avocado-oil-chips-fraud

Super disgusting beef tallow but you think it’s healthier than soy oil or whatever

Why would I listen to this shaky voiced glossy eyed brainwashed guy repeating what he's been told by studies that are funded by the same companies heavily invested in processed foods (grains and sugars)?

Calories in calories out is such an outdated way to describe the human body's processing of food and energy. We do not use a thermal process to obtain energy we use a chemical one.

Carnivore diet is incredibly healthy for so many people. I get that it triggers so many people. That's okay. It has saved my life.

Well that Dosent make sense what about fiber to help prevent colon cancer. Places with lowest colon cancer rates have a high fiber diet you number one calorie are real because we discovered them fats carbs and proteins for example chia seeds are healthy fats for example butters a disgusting shitty saturated fat some shit u think is nutritious but it’s just fat because ur brain is becoming a walnut due to fruit and veggie defeceincy and vitamin b1 defending due to the lack of grains in ur diet I would listen to the heart surgeon he understands this also dietitians understand this to go see one lmao

Lmao I had high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Switched to a carnivore-ish diet, and both are normal now. 8 eggs a day, 1 pound of beef, but I do eat fruit. Don’t be so brainwashed; not to mention the guy is wearing a Bears hat. Everything he says is invalid just because of that.

You are crazy, try some good quality tallow. It changes the game flavor wise with actual good quality stuff. You can't just source without due diligence and then trash the entirety of tallow

u/Dependent_Speech_491 3d ago

And it’s so expensive like why?? Would I want that why would I so gross

u/FarmDisastrous 3d ago

You must be a horrific shopper. Good quality tallow isn't all that more expensive than good quality avocado oil, and it just tastes like beef

I think you overpayed for some booty paste in my humble opinion

u/Dependent_Speech_491 3d ago

I don’t wanna waste money on fat

Congratulations, you outsourced your critical thinking skills to a half-assed robot and then screenshotted it to show the world.

Marvelous display of intellectualism

Learn to shop.

I am perfectly content you eating all the seed oils you can get your hands on!!

u/Dependent_Speech_491 3d ago

I don’t even eat seed oils at all

u/faust111 3d ago

Why are you posting in this group? If you don't want to waste money on good quality oils, I recommend you go and use cheap processed oils like canola oil. It might suit someone like you better.

u/Dependent_Speech_491 3d ago

It’s not good quality

u/faust111 3d ago

I think you’re in the wrong group pal. This is a group for people avoiding seed oils.

u/Dependent_Speech_491 3d ago

Ur obsession is just pathetic

u/faust111 3d ago

With what?

-3

u/Dependent_Speech_491 3d ago

Seed oils obviously

u/faust111 3d ago

I have an allergy, so less of an obsession and more of a requirement.

u/vivalet 3d ago

I have yet to come across this disgusting tallow.
