Over 30,000 Pounds of Beef Tallow Recalled Nationwide
The Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has announced an active recall of 33,899 pounds of beef tallow. The products were processed, packaged, and labeled without required federal inspection. The recall was initiated after FSIS was notified by a local health department that Lady May Tallow had contracted Common Sense Soap to process, package, and label the recalled product, which does not bear a USDA mark of inspection. Further, Common Sense Soap does not have the federal grant of inspection needed to process, package, and label food products and is not authorized to produce products intended for human consumption. The beef tallow products were shipped by Lady May Tallow to wholesalers and recall locations nationwide. The items were produced between Oct. 16, 2024 and Feb. 6, 2025. The following products are included in the recall and labeled as: PREMIUM QUALITY GOODS Grass-fed beef TALLOW Lady May ALL NATURAL sold in a 24 fl oz glass jar PREMIUM QUALITY GOODS Grass-fed beef TALLOW Lady May ALL NATURAL sold in a 2 lb plastic tub PREMIUM QUALITY GOODS Grass-fed beef Original TALLOW Lady May ALL NATURAL sold in a 7.8-8 lb plastic tub PREMIUM QUALITY GOODS Grass-fed beef TALLOW Lady May ALL NATURAL sold in a 16 lb plastic tub FSIS says that the beef tallow products contain a nutrition facts label, which leads consumers to believe that the product is safe for consumption. There have been no reports of adverse reactions following the consumption of the recalled items, however, anyone concerned about possible side effects should contact a healthcare provider. Since the products may be in the pantries of consumers, FSIS advises them to throw them away or return to the place of purchase.

Beef tallow sales resume after recall nationwide
A beef tallow company has resumed sales after the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) recalled over 30,000 pounds of its product due to a labeling issue. Lady May Tallow is a Mississippi-based company that sells various beef tallow products, including skincare and candles. "On February 6th, we were notified of a labeling issue affecting our 24 oz. beef tallow for cooking," said a statement from Lady May Tallow that was provided to Fox News Digital. Lady May Tallow sold the products nationwide. "While the product itself remains completely safe and unaffected, the labeling required correction," said the statement. "As a result, our manufacturer, Common Sense Soap, initiated a voluntary recall to ensure compliance." Beef tallow is the fat that surrounds a cow's kidney. It can be used as an ingredient in cosmetics as well as in cooking. The labeling has since been updated and sales of the beef tallow resumed on Friday, Feb. 14, Chris McDonald, owner and founder of Lady May Tallow, told Fox News Digital. The recall only applied to a cooking tallow product, said the statement — not any of Lady May Tallow's other items. The tallow was sold in a variety of sizes. "If you purchased a 24 oz. beef tallow for cooking product between Oct. 16, 2024, and Feb. 6, 2025, and still have it in your possession, we ask that you dispose of it," said the statement. A person can receive a replacement by emailing a photo of the product along with a receipt to Lady May Tallow, the company said. "We sincerely appreciate your understanding, patience, and continued support," said the statement from the company — which noted this has been a "valuable learning opportunity" and "one heck of a learning experience."

"Common Sense Soap does not possess a federal grant of inspection and is not authorized to produce products intended for human consumption," said the release.
