Bacon Grease

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 5 ingredients to avoid

Bacon Up Bacon Grease scores 5/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Bacon Up Bacon Grease lists 14 ingredients, starting with Rendered Bacon Fat, Salt, Sea Salt, Potassium Chloride and Sugar. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Bacon Up Bacon Grease scores worse than most oils & vinegars we have scored. A higher-scoring option in oils & vinegars is Terra Delyssa Organic First Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil at 100/100.
