(Was unsure to put this under food and cooking, but I consider this US News/Political, sooo)

With a new spin on cooking french fries, Steak 'n Shake is joining the campaign “Make America Healthy Again,” made popular by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

The company recently made a change and now is cooking shoestring fries in beef tallow instead of vegetable oil. Some Florida locations were the first to start cooking their french fries in beef tallow at the end of January.

But on March 1, the company posted on the social media platform X that all locations nationwide now serve fries cooked in “100% beef tallow… No preservatives, chemicals or additives.”>

    I’ll be honest. The nutritional value of the french fries at a Steak 'n Shake don’t matter to me at all when I’m downing a 4000 calorie shake with it and a 1500 calorie burger. If it makes the fries tastier, I think that’s all anyone there will care about.
