Lard

Lard is rendered pork fat, used as a cooking fat. It consists almost entirely of fat and provides 99g of fat per 100g, including 40g of saturated fat. Its energy content is 3663 kJ per 100g. It supplies only trace amounts of protein and contains no carbohydrate or fibre.

Fat provides energy and helps the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins. Lard’s high fat and energy content are worth noting for people monitoring their energy intake. Its saturated fat content is also relevant for those limiting saturated fat, as this can raise blood cholesterol levels. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
