IMO Crisco was a vastly inferior substitute for lard or bacon grease as a baking shortening in the first place. Go back to the real stuff.

My Grandma used Crisco and when I bake them I want them to taste like Grandma’s. lol It’s not like I bake them every day, I bake them once or twice a year.
I always bought the smallest can of Crisco and threw most of it away as it would go rancid since I used it so seldom.
I told that to the Crisco customer service rep when I called them to complain.

I used to use Farmer Peet’s lard for pie crust with any kind of clear soda/pop for the liquid but I cannot find lard anywhere anymore.
