About Swine fat or oil

Swine fat or oil is edible fat obtained from pigs, identified here as a broad category rather than one particular cut, rendering method, or product. It may be solid or fluid depending on processing and temperature.

It is used as a cooking fat or as an ingredient in prepared foods. Products within the category can differ in degree of rendering, refinement, and retained water or other material, so the label does not establish a single appearance, texture, or flavour.
