To burn it off
Salo is cured pork fat, salted, often with garlic and pepper, sometimes smoked. It is cut very thin and eaten on dark rye bread with garlic or an onion. In Ukraine it is close to a national symbol.
A few thin slices, about 30 g, are 240 kcal, with 26 g of fat and almost nothing else. That is the whole point of it.
The rye bread under it is extra. A small amount goes a long way, which is why it is sliced so thin.
