Common questions

Is Ground Elk healthy?

Ground Elk scores 95/100 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 Elk?

Ground Elk lists 2 ingredients, starting with Grass Fed Elk and Grass Fed Beef. 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 Elk?

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

Does Ground Elk contain seed oils?

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