FAQ
What makes Fat of the Land snacks different from other snacks on the market?
Unlike most packaged snacks made with vegetable and seed oils, we use traditional animal fats like beef tallow. These fats are nutrient-rich, minimally processed, and have been used for generations. Our snacks are crafted to nourish, not just fill.
Why don’t you use vegetable or seed oils?
Vegetable and seed oils are highly processed, often chemically extracted, and linked to inflammation and chronic disease. They also require large-scale monocrop agriculture, which contributes to environmental degradation. We choose animal fats because they’re natural, heat-stable, and better for human health and the planet.
What kind of animal fats do you use?
We primarily use beef tallow and other animal fats. These traditional fats are nutrient-dense, stable at high heat, and require minimal processing—just heat and time. They’re the fats our ancestors thrived on.
Are your products suitable for kids?
Absolutely! Our snacks were created by parents, for parents. We wanted a clean, nourishing option for our own children—so every snack we make is one we’re proud to share with families. No processed oils, no artificial junk—just real ingredients.
Do your snacks contain sugar or artificial additives?
Nope. Our focus is on real, whole ingredients. That means no added sugar, no seed oils, no artificial preservatives or flavors—just honest, wholesome snacks you can trust.
Are your ingredients sustainably sourced?
Yes. We prioritize ethical and regenerative practices when sourcing our animal fats. By working with responsible farms and suppliers, we help support healthy ecosystems and humane animal care.
Are your snacks keto or paleo friendly?
They sure are. Our products are made with traditional fats and simple ingredients, making them naturally low-carb and fully aligned with keto, paleo, and ancestral diets.
Do you offer any dairy-free or gluten-free options?
Most of our snacks are naturally dairy-free and gluten-free, but always check individual product labels for specifics. We keep things simple and transparent.
What is beef tallow, and why do you use it?
Beef tallow is rendered fat from cattle, traditionally used for cooking due to its rich flavor and high smoke point. It’s incredibly stable, packed with fat-soluble vitamins, and far more nutritious than modern processed oils.
How should I store your snacks?
Our snacks are shelf-stable but made without preservatives, so we recommend storing them in a cool, dry place. Once opened, enjoy them within a reasonable timeframe for best flavor and freshness.
Where are your snacks made?
All of our products are proudly made in the USA, using responsibly sourced, high-quality ingredients you can feel good about.
