I am currently experimenting with carnivore and have a question for you veterans. This is a little geeky, but for experimental purposes, I am tracking the macros and doing a little study on it.
So it may be a stupid question, but what I’m looking at a food label, does fat represented on the label include the rendered fat from meat? For instance, if I throw a pound of 73/27 ground beef in the iron skillet, do I get the entire amount of fat in grams expressed on the food label by eating the meat alone, or by the meat and rendered fat together?
I’ve tried to find the answer to this on the USDA website and in their literature with no luck. Maybe I didn’t dig deep enough.
My purpose is just trying to get a little closer to nailing down the actual grams of fat I’m consuming with the cuts of meat that I’m eating.
Any help would be appreciated!
