There’s a growing line of thought/realization that lard is good to fry in.

Far better than any of the industrially-refined nut oils - corn, soybean, cottonseed, canola, etc.

To play devil’s advocate, an unfortunate number of American families treat Thanksgiving as a food holiday. I haven’t had a “real” Thanksgiving in over 15 years.

Exactly.

Seems like a horrible, slave-like way to live one’s life...

It is anything but a food holiday, if you do it right.


https://www.mountvernon.org/education/primary-sources-2/article/thanksgiving-proclamation-of-1789/

By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.

Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor— and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.

Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be— That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks—for his kind care and protection of the People of this Country previous to their becoming a Nation—for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war—for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed—for the peaceable and rational manner, in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted—for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.

and also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions— to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually—to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed—to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord—To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and us—and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.

Given under my hand at the City of New York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789.

George Washington

[Washington issued a proclamation on October 3, 1789, designating Thursday, November 26 as a national day of thanks. In his proclamation, Washington declared that the necessity for such a day sprung from the Almighty’s care of Americans prior to the Revolution, assistance to them in achieving independence, and help in establishing the constitutional government.]


Yes, there will be an abundance of excellent food at my family Thanksgiving, but it’s not a food holiday. It’s a celebration and recognition of God’s grace.

In this sort of instance, it’s a lot easier and more effective to just laugh at them.

There have always been people with ‘jobs’ like that.

Haven’t we always identified the ‘two oldest professions’ as whoring and spying?

From videos I’ve seen, they use a lot of lard to serve it!

I know it’s very frustrating watching someone lie to your face.

The other day she defended her claim of no using Black Face, by saying she used body makeup to do her whole body.

Ah..., isn’t that worse?

That was the short “do”. Saw her over the weekend with braids coiled all over her head. In fact, they looked so top heavy, I thought she might tip over in her chair.

Are you blaming Popeye’s for one individual asshole’s actions?

In my area, you can get killed for entering the Metro; smashed into the concrete for just being near the entrance to a hotel; shot for being a journalist for a small local newspaper; and all over the Nation you can be shot dead for just worshipping at a church or synagogue, attending a public school - or exploded to bits for arriving to work in the morning at an office building in a Large Metropolitan Area.

Are you going to stop living, because there is danger out there?
