Rum Balls,

Never thought about the dual English definition of that word!

Rendering is a process that converts waste animal tissue into stable, value-added materials. Rendering can refer to any processing of animal byproducts into more useful materials, or more narrowly to the rendering of whole animal fatty tissue into purified fats like lard or tallow. Rendering can be carried out on an industrial, farm, or kitchen scale.

I will change the title to be a little more specific.

Thanks to all who have chimed in, it was a fun thread to put together. I have to give credit to all of the explorers who came before me that uncovered most of these gems (i.e. Sabu).

There are a few more to add... soon.
