Kind of reminds me of “I would rather live a day as a free man than a lifetime as a slave”.
Lard is the Lord.
I thought “Grease is the word.”
Auntie Fee
Everybody has choices in life. If she was happy, I’m all good with this.
There is an interesting trend in food circles these days. Restaurants have gotten over their fear of bacon and such like.
It’s probably driven somewhat by economics, but lots of the independent restaurants have embraced things like Pork Belly as an entree.
Benton’s Bacon is fairly worshiped in the Slow Food, Gravy Magazine, and Bitter Southerner culture.
Did she smoke cigarettes ?

1. James Fixx
The author of the 1977 runaway bestseller, “The Complete Book of Running,” Fixx is often credited with starting the American running craze. Fixx ran 10 miles a day in addition to other vigorous exercise, and was described as being in fine physical condition by friends yet he had a fatal heart attack at the age of 52 while jogging near his home in Vermont.
My kind of Gal!!!
Love her philosophy and follow her guidelines (Actually first I have heard of HER).
Never thought I would see 30, pushing 78 and have declared I will be the first to NOT live life to its fullest -
The ULTIMATE goal of life is staying alive until you die.
I still work everyday, (though very selective), am on no prescription drugs (or never on ANY drugs - Alcohol is/was food until the lawyers got their hooks into naming things)
Had a Hernia Op in 1959, cataract surgery in 2007, my two major medical forays into life, last physical before 2007 was in 1964 and that was a joke.
Granted I could keel over tomorrow but..........
I figure those that exercise, watch their diet etc and die on the same day as I, will just die a little healthier.
Remember it has been proven by time that ANYONE that ate beans during the civil war died.
RIP.
hopefully she didn’t order her steak well done and douse it with ketchup!! THAT would be blasphemy.
The lard didn’t kill her
Sugar and starch did
Fees fame has come with no small amount of criticism. Some have called her illiterate, unsanitary and unscripted... They have said her dishes loaded with butter, sugar and grease will send people to an early grave.
