After watching that video of RFK Jr explaining how fast food restaurants used to cook fries in beef tallow but then switched to oils, I decided to give it a shot. I used to always use vegetable oil for the fries or a little butter to grill the burgers on a griddle. This time I finally caved in and bought a few gallons of beef tallow. Hoo boy, was it amazing. I'm NEVER going back to vegetable oil, I'll only cook fries in tallow from here on out. The burgers were also the best I've ever made.
I wonder, what are the health benefits of tallow? 🤔
Yep. Kerrygold Pure Irish Butter. Only use Olive Oil and Avocado Oil in cooking too. We don't eat any fried except for fish and we use the Avocado Oil for that!
That and I also use coconut oil
oh, avocado oil with fish hrmmm, usually steam my fish but, a lil crisp from a fry or bake does sound good bout now lol.
I thought Kerrygold is not a safe alternative to butter? I think they said there were heavy metals found in Kerrygold's butter due to the foil wrapping they used?
I remember seeing that from a video someone either posted here or on Reddit... I'll go find it then I'll post it in a different comment.
Let me know.
Minor nitpick, Kerrygold is not an alternative to butter, it's just another option of butter.
Doing some slight digging, it's not heavy metals but the "forever chemical" buzzwords that liberal media throws around so much. Apparently there is a lawsuit by CA and NY for PFAS found in the wrappers and the holding company's lack of labelling the product as containing it.
Yeah I posted another comment but I see I forgot to mention that it's not heavy metals I was thinking of, but PFAS.
Yeah I included the class action lawsuit link in my other comment.
OK I found the video I saw when it was posted a while ago, can't remember how long ago, but anyways the video:

EDIT: Forgot to mention that it wasn't heavy metals I was originally thinking of, but PFAS, or better known as "Forever Chemicals" found in Kerrygold.
