With Beef Tallow in the Spotlight, Coast Packing's TasteMap™ Shows Diners Where to "Taste the Difference" Nationwide
From Los Angeles to Dallas to St. Louis and New York, Coast's Interactive Map Guides Food Lovers to the Ultimate in Flavor
VERNON, Calif., June 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As beef tallow continues to gain popularity among chefs, food influencers, and health-conscious consumers alike, Coast Packing Company—the leading supplier of animal fat shortenings in the Western U.S.—invites diners to explore its growing TasteMap™, a national treasure trove of flavor.
The TasteMap™ (https://coastpacking.com/community/tastemaps) is an interactive destination guide to restaurants, markets, butchers, and eateries across the country that proudly cook with traditional animal fats like beef tallow and lard. Whether you're craving perfectly crispy French fries, golden-fried chicken, or a pie crust that flake dreams are made of, the TasteMap shows you where to go.
Notably, the number of establishments on the map using beef tallow has increased significantly, from 360 locations in 2020 to 868 locations today, marking a 141% rise. This trend reflects a clear shift towards traditional, flavor-driven cooking methods.
"Consumers are realizing that not all fats are created equal," said Greg Hozinsky, Corporate Chef of Coast Packing Company. "Unlike industrial seed oils, which are heavily processed and often chemically extracted, beef tallow is natural, stable at high heat, and loaded with flavor. It delivers unmatched crispness and texture in fried foods. Coast Packing's TasteMap helps consumers find fries, pies, restaurants, butchers, and markets nationwide that cook with or sell traditional animal fats like beef tallow and lard."
Here are just a few standout TasteMap™ restaurants offering crave-worthy beef tallow and lard-based dishes:
Heavy Handed – Los Angeles, CAHeavy Handed is all about crafting the perfect burger. They use high-quality ground short rib beef for its ideal flavor and marbling. Their dedication also extends to their fries, which are fried in beef tallow to achieve a golden, crispy texture, and best enjoyed by the handful alongside their signature Heavy Sauce.
Manhattan Project Beer Co. – Dallas, TXThis innovative brewery and taproom offers more than just craft beers. Their Thai Fried Chicken is a standout, featuring chicken dredged in a gluten-free flour mix and fried in beef tallow, resulting in a crispy skin infused with flavors of coriander, cilantro, and garlic.

Florian Wirtz joins list of most expensive soccer signings in history
Florian Wirtz became one of the most expensive players in soccer history when the Germany playmaker joined Liverpool from Bayer Leverkusen on Friday for a fee of up to 116 million pounds ($156 million). Neymar: $262 million (222 million euros) Advertisement Paris Saint-Germain shattered the world-record transfer fee by signing the Brazil superstar from Barcelona in August 2017. It was more than double the outlay of Manchester United to sign Paul Pogba from Juventus for $116 million a year earlier. It remains the record transfer fee. ___ Kylian Mbappé: $216 million (180 million euros) A few weeks after buying Neymar, PSG also secured a loan deal for Mbappé — then the rising star of French soccer playing for Monaco — that included the option to make the move permanent in 2018. PSG did so, making it an outlay of nearly $500 million on two players. ___ Philippe Coutinho: $192 million (160 million euros) Advertisement Flush with cash after selling Neymar a year earlier, Barcelona spent most of it in a deal to buy Brazil playmaker Coutinho from Liverpool for a Spanish record fee. ___ Moises Caicedo: $146 million (115 million pounds) The Ecuador midfielder's move was previously the most expensive deal by a British club, with Chelsea buying him from Brighton in August 2023. ___ João Félix: $140 million (126 million euros) Atletico Madrid triggered a buyout clause in Félix's contract to sign the Portugal forward from Benfica in August 2019. ___ Jude Bellingham: $139 million (128.5 million euros) The England star got his big move to Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund in June 2023, for an initial up-front fee of 103 million euros plus add-ons linked to performance. Advertisement ___ Antoine Griezmann: $134 million (120 million euros) Atletico could afford to sign Félix after selling France forward Griezmann to Barcelona for a similar fee a few weeks earlier. ___ Neymar: $98 million (90 million euros) Outside from Europe, the biggest transfer deal also involved Neymar when he joined Al Hilal, a team in the Saudi Pro League, from Paris Saint-Germain in August 2023. That came at the height of Saudi Arabia's push to sign high-end soccer talent to ignite the oil-rich state's domestic league. ___ AP soccer: Steve Douglas, The Associated Press

Warner Bros. Discovery (NasdaqGS:WBD) To Split After 60% Fall; Seeks Investors
Warner Bros. Discovery has announced its decision to split into two separate public companies, a major shift in strategy aiming to focus on streaming growth while housing underperforming cable channels separately. This decision follows a significant decline in stock value since the merger with Warner Media. Over the past month, the company's stock rose 14%, which might align with a broader market sentiment, also up during this period. Events such as Amazon Prime's partnership for early film screenings and new product launches like the "Harry Potter™ Pinball" might add incremental interest in the stock but are unlikely to have drastically influenced this change. We've discovered 1 weakness for Warner Bros. Discovery that you should be aware of before investing here. Uncover the next big thing with financially sound penny stocks that balance risk and reward. The recent decision by Warner Bros. Discovery to split into two public companies may potentially affect its strategic plans and earnings forecasts. By focusing one entity on streaming and separating underperforming cable divisions, the aim is to enhance growth and stabilize revenue streams, particularly through Max's international subscriber growth. This structural change could lead to increased direct-to-consumer revenue, as efforts are made to reinforce industry leadership while addressing debt and cost challenges. Over the past year, Warner Bros. Discovery's total return, including share price gains and dividends, was 34.57%. However, when compared with the longer-term period, it underperformed the US Entertainment industry, which returned 62.4% over the same timeframe. Nonetheless, the company's shares did outpace the broader US market, which returned 11.2% during the last year. In terms of the recent 14% increase in share value in the past month, this movement provides context to the company's current position relative to analyst price targets. With the share price sitting at US$8.43, it remains approximately 36.7% below the consensus target of US$13.19. This discount suggests that investors may be waiting to see evidence of positive impacts on revenue and net earnings before aligning more closely with analyst expectations. Our comprehensive valuation report raises the possibility that Warner Bros. Discovery is priced lower than what may be justified by its financials.

U.S. company to provide $6 billion loan for British nuclear power project
Protesters hold banners outside Hinkley Point power station in Somerset, United Kingdom, in 2011 against EDF Energy's plans to renew the site with two new reactors. The project began in 2017 and has had delays and funding problems File Photo by Ben Birchuk/EPA June 20 (UPI) -- Apollo, a U.S. asset management group, plans to provide a $6 billion loan to the British nuclear project Hinkley Point C being built by a French multinational electric utility company. Hinkley's estimated cost has soared from $23.7 billion to almost $60.6 billion and won't be operational until at least 2029, Baha Breaking News reported. Construction began in 2017. Apollo will provide an investment-grade debt financing package at an interest rate below 7% for the project developer, Electricite de France, sources told CNBC and the Financial Times. Apollo, which was founded in 1990 by Leonard Black, Josh Harris and Marc Rowan, manages capital for institutional and individual investors. Apollo, headquartered in New York City, had revenue of $26.11 billion in 2024 with a net income of $6.373 billion. The loan has a maximum maturity of 12 years. EDF is building two new nuclear reactors at the site in Somerset and will be able to borrow $2 billion each of the three years as part of the package. The company has had a shortfall since China General Nuclear Power Group, which was supposed to provide a third of the cost of the project, stopped providing further financing in 2023. CGN was removed by the British government from another project -- Sizewell C -- because of concerns about Chinese influence. The funding could be used for other British projects by EDF. Jamshid Ehsani, head of global principal structured finance at Apollo, described the deal as the "largest ever" sterling private credit deal. "It's going to help finance a critical, low-carbon nuclear project. This is the business Apollo is in today," he said. "Europe is a huge focus for us."
