About LARD
This product, manufactured by Armour Specialty Marketing, is rendered pork fat, commonly known as lard. It's a high-fat cooking ingredient suited for frying, baking, and adding richness to savory dishes. Nutritionally, lard is extremely energy-dense, providing 923 calories and 100 grams of fat per 100-gram serving. It contains no protein or carbohydrates.
