Seed oils vs.Beef tallow

[Diamond_Dog]

There seems to be a theory out there that seed oils (canola, sunflower, corn, etc.) are bad for you and cause inflammation. RFK Jr. promotes this idea, so naturally I was suspicious. I Googled the subject just now and found out that there are two schools of thought on the subject but there isn’t any conclusive evidence one way or the other.

I have seen a trend in my area lately that some restaurants are eschewing seed oils (that they claim are bad for you) and using beef tallow for all their fried foods instead.

Now, beef tallow is rendered beef fat and contains 50% cholesterol. But proponents of beef tallow claim it’s healthier for you than canola oil because it’s “natural” and not “processed “. I can’t wrap my mind around this. How is that healthier? People with high cholesterol even are jumping on the beef tallow bandwagon. I think they just like the flavor it gives fried food like French fries or fried chicken.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Seems to me we are going backwards on everything these days.
