What it is
Rendered bacon fat is the fat from pork that has been cooked and separated from the meat. Cooked bacon is cured pork belly that has been smoked and cooked. Both are derived from pork.
Why it's used
Rendered bacon fat is used as a cooking fat and to add a smoky, savory flavor to processed foods. Cooked bacon, often in crumbled or chopped form, is used as a topping or ingredient to enhance flavor and texture in items like sausages, frozen meals, and snacks.
Health notes
Rendered bacon fat and cooked bacon are considered food ingredients and are not subject to specific FDA regulations beyond general food safety. High consumption of processed meats, including those with added bacon, has been linked by some health organizations to increased risk of certain chronic diseases. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated processed meats and related compounds, but no specific health claims are made here. Evidence on the health effects of moderate consumption is mixed.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. Bacon is derived from pork, which is not one of the nine major allergens. Gluten is not present unless added during processing.
