What is Tallow? What items can be made with it?

Question

Any info and anything about how to go about making the items would be a great help, Thanks.

Answer 1

Tallow is bovine fat that is rendered. It's used in soap, animal feeds, and used to be used for candles. It can also be used as biodiesel.

Answer 2

McDonalds used to cook french fries in tallow which is what made them taste so much better than others brands.  But that's no more....God forbid we should eat anything that isn't healthful for us.  Of course it's ok if we smoke cigarettes until our lungs rot away, chew tobacco until our lips fall off and drink booze until our liver is hard as a rock and our skin is as yellow as a banana.

Answer 3

This site will show you how to render tallow from fat and make soap and candles.
