Steak ‘N Shake is participating in the campaign as a new spin of French potato fries. “Make the United States healthy again“Health and Human Service Minister Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The company has recently changed, and now it is cooking fried fries in beef fries instead of vegetable oil. In fact, Brevard’s Melbourne area began to cook French fries in beef fried in late January.
On March 1, the company posted on the social media platform XX that all locations in the country are now cooked with “100% beef toollow … no preservatives, no chemicals or additives.”
What is beef?
Beef comes from cows and is also known as beef fat and water droplets. It is made by boiling and clearly boiling animal fat tissue.
Tolow is white or creamy, solid at room temperature and is considered saturated fat.
In contrast, seed oil is known as a vegetable oil that comes from plant seeds and is considered unsaturated fat.
RFK JR. praises beef toll row
The Steak ‘N shake, owned by Biglari Holdings, posted “Fries is RFK’D” and shares the tags on the photos of Kennedy and Trump Ally Elon Musk and Tesla vehicles regularly.
Kennedy and Fox News organizer Sean Hannity traveled last weekend with Florida Steak ‘Shake’ and sampled potato fries.
Kennedy talked about seed oil and claims that beef toll row is a healthier alternative.
Kennedy said in a post on X in October 2024 that “saturated animal fats were not good for health, but since then we have found that seed oil is one of the causes of obesity infectious diseases.”
Is the beef a healthier alternative to seed oil?
EMMA LAING, a nutritional scientist at Georgia University, said Health.com Choosing vegetable oil over beef toll row depends on the lifestyle and preference of a person.
Both oils have similar calorie counts. Beef oil has more saturated fat, and seed oils are high in multiple unsaturated omega -6 fatty acids.
According to American Heart AssociationOmega -6 fatty acids are part of a healthy diet and can help reduce the risk of stroke and heart disease by reducing bad cholesterol.
Most health experts agree that high intake of saturated fats leads to cholesterol accumulation in the arteries, causing heart disease.
