One would think the Brits would have learned the lesson of using animal fat after the Sepoy Mutiny.

I suspect that the reason for the inclusion of animal fat is to make it easier for dogs to detect.

As a side note I have plastic bank notes. They are slippery and feel weird.

Do these idiots eat cash for lettuce or what? If they’re not eating or grilling it then STFU!

Just wait till they find out what's running the fans in data centers.

They should use pig fat.
That way Muslims wouldn’t be conducting cash only businesses. /nudge wink

The word “Muslem” or “Islam” wasnt used one single time in this story.
I sure am glad they didnt piss of the muslems.

“HuHuh! I was in the right!”
“Yes, absolutely in the right!”
“I certainly was in the right!”
“You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!”
“Yeah!”
“Why does anyone do anything?”
“I don’t know, I was really drunk at the time!”
“I was just telling him, he couldn’t get into number 2. He was asking why he wasn’t coming up on freely, after I was yelling and screaming and telling him why he wasn’t coming up on freely.
It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out.”

Seems to me every Freeper should take note and begin spraying bacon fat on their money.
It’s bound to circulate world wide.

“I suspect that the reason for the inclusion of animal fat is to make it easier for dogs to detect.”
It is added to give it the proper feel and reduce static charge.

No, it’s the Hindus and related groups that are upset, because they are using COW fat. The Muslims don’t give a crap about that.
To: Ciaphas Cain
They should switch to lard. PO the right people.
