Dam Joe you not only have great pictures, you are smart...I just had to ask the clerk where leaf lard was...:O) But that is a interesting answer to my question Thanks.. I will die happy knowing what my mother wanted when she sent me to the store in the 1940’s....I am sure my grandmother who was born in the 1870’s made her own leaf lard and my dad use to talk about castrating pigs, just to gross out his kids.... He once said his dad made this healing salve that was so good that if you were not careful applying it to the pigs and it got near the a$$hole, the pig would never shi!. Then you’d have to open him up a new one.....I never believed it, but who knows Those old folks had lots of remedies...
Well, now, I suppose it depends on who you’re trying to love up on.
If a girl came up to me smelling like bacon, I might ask her to marry me on the spot!
A guy who walked up to a girl smelling like bacon might not get the same reaction. Of course, the smell of bacon does kinda have a universal appeal.
If you used something other than underwear to filter the rendered fat and got all of the particulate matter out of it, and maybe filtered it with activated charcoal, and maybe threw some rose petals or pinecones in it to ameliorate the smell... I dunno.
