List of restaurants switching to beef tallow for fries: RFK Jr. says it's healthier, is it?

[Bernardo de La Paz]

9. Notice they call beef fat "tallow" to sane-wash it. There is a food fad against "seed oils"

I think the great preponderance of evidence is against beef fat and pro oils like olive oil, avocado oil, and canola oil.

Just what the seed oils the fadists are against is hardly ever clear. I don't know if they include corn oil and "vegetable oil" in the seed oils. Those two definitely have problems. I invited one fan on DU to make a case for the beef fat they were pushing and they got super-defensive and refused. I think the real reason is that there is not much of a case for beef fat

I take as a my own guideline that if the fat/oil is solid at room temperature it is likely to risk clogging arteries. But I don't use corn or vegetable oils. I use olive oil and avocado oil (now about the same price) despite the cost, and trim meat fat off as much as I can or buy very lean cuts. I eat beef about once every two or three weeks. I even use kitchen scissors to cut most of the fat off bacon strips.
