Common questions

Is Ground Beef healthy?

Ground Beef scores 100/100 on Tallow — our clean 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.

What is in Ground Beef?

Ground Beef lists 1 ingredient, starting with Ground Chuck. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

How many calories are in Ground Beef?

250 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Ground Beef on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

Does Ground Beef contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Ground Beef’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
