Oh, my. I just gained five pounds looking at those pictures.

[VastRWCon]

National Wookie day?

[wally_bert]

I know a Watts people in that area.

All good people.

When I was a kid (long,long ago) my mother used to use Crisco like crazy. It’s amazing that I didn’t die of a heart attack when I was 12!

[dfwgator]

Crisco is pure poison.

[I-ambush]

Luckily, my wife is a lardlover.

[HangnJudge]

... Crisco is pure poison.

Unless you are on a keto diet...

[dfwgator]

I am on a Keto diet and I won’t go near the stuff I cook mainly in butter, or beef tallow

[real saxophonist]

Manteca!

[HangnJudge]

... I cook mainly in butter

Mmmm... Butter the nectar of the Gids

[Comment Not Approved]

KitchenAid® Metallic Series 5-Qt. Stand Mixer in Satin Copper, with an estimated retail value of $629.95.

Costco has these mixers for under $300. Maybe not exact model but they will do all of the same functions. I got my KitchenAid mixer almost 25 years ago. They are tough appliances. Instructions said "May cause injury or death ..." You would not want an errant piece of clothing caught up in that thing as it would pull you in with it.

I think I may have missed the sarcasm tag.

I’ve never seen ANYBODY recommend Crisco as part of a KETO diet.

[Calvin Locke]

So the dems sadistic attempts at manipulation come from eating hydrogenated fats?

Or being vegetarian/vegan?

[HangnJudge]

Not recommended, certainly, but tolerated
Lard is just rendered pig fat
It is a mammal sourced triglyceride derivative of pork processing
And nothing more, or less

[Dr. Sivana]

My wife’s tourtiere (Canadian meat pie) with lard is exquisite. She is making some for Christmas.

For New Year’s I think her oliebollen (Dutch dough balls) also contain lard.

All extremely delicious.

AKA...National Nadler Day

Chicken fried in Crisco, maybe the best food of my childhood. I’m surprised that the top Crisco recipe didn’t involve Crisco, cane syrup, sugar and peanut butter frozen in a Tupperware Popsicle mold.

[Grammy]

Crisco and lard are two different animals. Lard is animal fat, crisco is hydrogenated vegetable oil. Crisco used to be a decent substitute for lard, but no longer. Several years ago they removed all trans fats from crisco and it became worthless for any civilized cooking.
