God didn’t invent triglycerides because they were a dumb idea.
Don’t care, I do it too. Studied enough physiology and biochemistry in college to understand that all of the so-called research was nothing but a bovine crapfest done at the taxpayers expense.
Oh hell! Why did you publish that picture. Now my psyche won’t be in harmony until I eat at least a pound or two of bacon.
I USE the lard in my fridge. Lard is infinitely healthier than Crisco or margarine. INFINITELY HEALTHIER. And it tastes a whole helluva lot better, too. It is also higher in "good" cholesterol than "bad" cholesterol.
I know for a fact that switching from butter and Crisco to lard LOWERED THE CHOLESTEROL SIGNIFICANTLY in the wife of a friend of mine -- she's a nurse who turned the cooking over to her husband, who did some research on nutrition and switched to lard without telling her; her cholesterol dropped and she was so grateful, wanting to know what "magic" he had done to make it happen. Seeing as how she's a nurse and "conventional wisdom" (an oxymoron) in the medical community is that lard is "bad" for you, he didn't have the heart to tell her (also, he was wise enough just to shrug, as if "Heck if I know!").
But I took him at his word and switched to lard a few years ago -- and the last time I had my cholesterol checked about a year ago, the doc said it was just fine. Same with my husband, who eats everything I fry in LARD, from chicken to fish. Lard also makes THE very best pie crust ever, even better than butter.
Olive oil, lard, and butter -- STICK WITH WHAT GOD MAKES NATURALLY. Processed vegetable oils ... not so much.
There was no heart disease, almost no diabetes, etc., prior to 1900.
When these diseases started to appear, in the first half of the 20th century, the medical establishment was at a loss. Until our government experts found the answer: We need to eat less of the foods we’d eaten for millenia, and more of foods that hadn’t existed prior to 1900.
Ditto on the WAP-style diet. Lost 30 lbs in about half a year without trying, eating healthy fats and cutting out the processed carbs - lots of raw milk/cream/butter, and grass-fed high-fat beef and eggs.
You got that right!!! I am a lamb-lovin' fool!!! I eat pretty much all the fat on lamb, whereas I only eat about half the fat on beef. Lamby, lamby lamby!!!!! YUM!!!!!!!
You had to say it.
I guess while we’re on the subject of lard, one thing I like about it is that it has a low viscosity while hot and capilary affinity for food. This means that after you fry, put your hot food on an absorbent base, and the grease drains off nicely, giving you the fried food experience without the drenched in grease taste.
When I eat fat (meat and stuff) I usually also eat a lot of bread and soda.
Looks good, but needs more bacon.
I’m on a low carb diet, so I’d ditch the buns.................
If I was going to be executed my last meal request would be lamb. Of course, I’d rather just go to the store and buy some.
This ought to be just about right.................
since I resumed eating fat, especially butter, things have improved.
My numbers are all still good
LOLOLOL!!!! {^)
I had fried Grouper for breakfast today. My good cholesterol is a whopping 127. I’m freak of nature! Pass the tarter sauce!
Only with a diet soda......................
