The baking crowd would be lost without it.

Not this baker. Butter and lard are what Crisco is a substitute for. Try making a croissant with Crisco - blasphème!

And beef tallow is for double-deep-frying handcut french fries.
When you don’t have duck fat.

Or flour tortillas. My sis can make those like a native, and that's because she ONLY uses lard.

That’s just not fair: playing the butter and lard cards. Now you’ve gone and made me hungry. From the first time I saw a bakery guy buying lard in those bigaxx 5 gallon bricks That’s the only way I can visualize it now.
