This is exactly what happened with cheese in the 70’s and 80’s, actually. The dairy industry had a massive amount of surplus to get rid of to boost sales so they promoted cheese. It’s what lead to fondue getting really popular in the states.

conspiracy theory of mine: the whole push for beef tallow has nothing to do with health or even “owning the libs”. it’s just being pushed because the current administration got a shit load of funding from the declining beef industry

That surplus occurred because of government subsidies to keep the dairy industry afloat, funnily enough
