Certain animal fats - like the fat around the intestines and kidneys - are sacrificed on the altar.
These fats are forbidden to be eaten from those types of animals which are sacrificed; cattle, sheep and goats.
All the fats from non-domestic Kosher animals - like deer - may be eaten.
Applies to everybody, always, everywhere
Verse: "Do not eat the Cheilev-fat of the ox, sheep or goat" (Vayikra 7:23)
