I never in my life willingly gave up butter.

Here butter is considered an essential food group - never can have too much.

My granny had a jar of bacon grease next to the stove. She used it in everything, even popping corn in it. She was a few months shy of making it to 100 before she checked out.

Yes! I have a jar of bacon grease in my fridge right now! (I use it mostly for when I cook my "Black Eggs":

Heh, I went light on the black pepper, but those to me are key: Black Pepper, Crushed Red Pepper, and...Bacon Grease! (Full disclosure-the image above shows them being cooked in olive oil, which is still okay, but...for full effect, I love Bacon Grease!
