Clarified · Animal Fats
Graded C — 39 out of 100, #13 of 15 fats & oils. Clean label carries the score (82/100); omega-3 drags it down (0/100).
The short version: Clarified butter with a high smoke point — great for searing, not for pouring.
The catch: Same saturated-fat math as butter, minus the milk solids.
