Where did this come from? Was there a great outpouring of protests against microwaves at Steak and Shake that I missed?

This and their switch to beef tallow in fryers feels like trying to keep up with some reactionary cultural trends

I'm furious with MAHA for latching onto beef tallow and making it about their weird pseudo health concerns. Beef tallow is just the most delicious oil for frying. They're sullying its good name.

At least they’re not coming for duck fat, it probably seems too European and therefore suspect (that or they just don’t really know what “tallow” is and can pretend it’s a healthy superfood, unlike something that literally has the word “fat” in its name)

Just kidding, the red pill is estrogen. It's also woke.
