FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Beef tallow is simply rendered beef fat—a natural cooking fat with a long history in kitchens around the world. It’s made by gently heating beef fat to separate out impurities, resulting in a pure, shelf-stable fat. We use only minimally processed beef tallow in our products, ensuring top quality and taste.

There’s no shortage of fries cooked in vegetable oils, but we believe in offering a better alternative. Research suggests that vegetable oils degrade under high heat, producing byproducts like acrylamides and HNE (4-Hydroxy 2-Nonenal), which may contribute to inflammation. Beef tallow, on the other hand, is more stable at high temperatures, making it a cleaner option for cooking. Plus, it tastes fantastic!

Currently, our products are not certified, but we strictly
follow CFIA guidelines for labeling. Our fries are labeled as:

• Seed Oil Free
• All Natural
• Gluten Free
• Minimally Processed

Our fries contain only three simple ingredients: potatoes,
beef tallow, and sea salt—none of which contain gluten. While our facility is not certified as allergen-free, we take rigorous steps to mitigate any risk of cross-contamination. Here’s a few things we do to ensure the safety and quality of our fries:

We maintain a strict cleaning and sanitizing regimen before, during, and after each shift to minimize cross-contamination risks.

• No gluten-containing products are used in our workflow, and we ensure strict segregation of any processes involving gluten elsewhere in our facility.
• Our equipment, including fryers and tallow-handling tools, is dedicated exclusively to our production lines.
• We operate during shifts that are completely isolated from any gluten-related production.
• Periodic gluten testing is conducted on our final product to provide additional reassurance.

We are exploring third-party gluten-free certification, a thorough process that evaluates not just ingredients but also facility practices. While this certification takes time, you can trust that we go above and beyond to deliver a safe, delicious product.

We’re proud to source our premium russet potatoes from local distributors, ensuring they are Ontario-grown. This approach supports local farmers and guarantees a high-quality product for our customers.

Our beef tallow comes from a trusted Canadian rendering company, which primarily relies on suet sourced from Canadian farms. While the tallow is not specifically categorized as grass-fed, it is carefully filtered and crafted to meet the highest standards of quality, ensuring great taste and nutritional integrity.
