Yeah, but bacon tastes good. Pork chops taste good.

“This Meat is the Healthiest in the World, Even Healthier Than Many Vegetables”

ANY meat is healthier than vegetables as vegetables are designed to poison people and animals (part of their defense systems, since they cannot run away or otherwise hide).

But still the headline is progress.

ONLY way to make good tortillas is to use lard.

I certainly wouldn’t expect the “BRITISH LARD MARKETING BOARD” or the “LARD INFORMATION COUNCIL” to be marketing, let’s say, butter or olive oil ...

You’re posting paid propaganda, not objective information.

That’s OK ... just be aware of what you’re doing.

Well it is MSN, the ultimate repository of truth

Once a year we slaughtered hogs, my father and his partner would usually split about 12 hogs, my father provided the financing, and the partner did the work raising them.

Being a kid, I got all the crap jobs on the day we slaughtered them, one of those jobs was rendering the fat to make the lard and then skimming off skin part to make cracklings.

Besides great biscuits, my grandmother made some awesome crackling cornbread....

Haven’t had it since I was a small child in the 60’s!..........

Suppository, you mean.............

British Lard Marketing Board

The British Lard Marketing Board is a parody website that has gained attention for its humorous content and retro design. It was created in the late 1990s and is known for its satirical approach to promoting lard. The site includes various advertisements and slogans that poke fun at the idea of promoting lard as a dietary staple.

For example, one of the slogans on the site reads, “Lard gets a bad press - why, we don’t know. It’s nutritional properties are well documented and it’s not our fault that some people are too scared to eat it.” The site also features vintage-style advertisements, such as a 1957 ad showing a happy family with the caption “They’re happy because they eat lard.”

The British Lard Marketing Board website is often discussed on forums and blogs as an example of early internet parody and nostalgia for retro web design. It has been referenced in various online communities, including Reddit, where it has been shared and commented on by users interested in vintage advertising and British humor.

Despite its humorous nature, the website is not associated with any official government or industry organization. It is a privately maintained site that continues to entertain and amuse visitors with its unique take on promoting lard.

For over 150 years the Hungarians were rule by the Muslim Ottoman Turks. Being Muslim, they didn’t eat pork, but would eat the other farm animals.

So the Christian Hungarians increased their pork production, knowing that their rulers would not take their food.

I love bacon and I save my bacon grease. I really don’t like the taste of the lard that you can buy in the grocery store if I get pork chops with a lot of fat I will trim it all and render the lard.

Problem is, pigs are one of the closest to humans for disease transmission across species.

Lard Information Council

The Lard Information Council is a fictitious organization that has been referenced in various contexts, often as a humorous or satirical entity. It was never an actual government or industry body, but rather a creation used for parody and amusement. For instance, a poster with the slogan “They’re happy because they eat Lard” was attributed to the Lard Information Council, though it was actually a prank created by a member of an online forum.

...

In culinary contexts, lard has been defended as a healthier fat than butter, with lower saturated fat content and higher levels of mono-unsaturated fats, which can help in lowering LDL cholesterol and raising HDL cholesterol. This has led to a push for lard to regain its reputation in cooking and baking, particularly in the production of short pastry.

The fictitious Lard Information Council has been used to highlight the humorous aspects of food marketing and health propaganda, often in a nostalgic or retro style.
