Fat of the Land - Beef Tallow Chips
We are excited to introduce our new tallow-cooked snack, crafted with the same dedication to purity and ancestral nutrition that have come to define Fat of the Land. This isn’t your average chip — it’s fried in 100% premium beef tallow, never seed oils, and we keep the ingredients clean and simple. You’ll be able to enjoy it in three craveable flavors: Simple Sea Salt, Back Porch BBQ, and Salt & Vinegar — each one delivering a satisfying crunch and familiar taste without artificial additives. Whether you’re after that classic salty crisp, a smoky barbecue kick, or tangy vinegar zip, we’re offering a snack that fits keto, paleo, and whole-food lifestyles. No refined sugars, no hidden preservatives—just honest ingredients you can trust, shipped shelf-stable and ready to eat.
