Original Note:
The switch from beef tallow was due to campaigns by the National Heart Savers Association, founded by Phil Sokolof. Sokolof was not Indian, but rather of Eastern European and/or Jewish descent. The switch occurred in 1990, more than a decade before the 2002 settlement. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Sokolof https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDonald%27s_french_fries https://www.familysearch.org/en/surname?surname=Sokolof
