Beef
Tallow is a major raw material used in the production of chemical
intermediate products, such as fatty acids and fat alcohols. In
addition to its principal uses in edible fats and oils, beef
tallow is also used as baking and cooking fat, as well as in
margarine production, which involves small amounts. With its
similar fatty acid spectrum, beef tallow was formerly used to
stretch cocoa butter.
