Why Tallow Chips?

Simple, Honest Ingredients

Many of the brands we carry follow a simple “Law of Three” philosophy: potatoes, beef tallow, and sea salt. No seed oils, no artificial flavours, and no unnecessary additives—just real ingredients.

Great Flavour & Crisp Texture

Beef tallow doesn’t taste “beefy.” Instead, it creates a crisp chip with a savoury depth that enhances the natural flavour of the potato without leaving a greasy aftertaste.

A More Satisfying Snack

Beef tallow chips are a popular choice for those following Whole 30 or Paleo lifestyles, offering a simple snack with satisfying flavour and minimal ingredients.

Traditional Cooking Fat

Used for generations, beef tallow is a stable cooking fat that holds up well at high temperatures, helping create a crisp texture and consistent flavour in every batch.
At Amaranth, you’ll find one of the best selections of beef tallow chips and seed oil–free snacks in Canada, making it easy to shop alternatives, more traditional snack options.
