There’s always bacon grease, although that won’t work for baking.
*******************************

Industrially-produced lard, including much of the lard sold in supermarkets, is rendered from a mixture of high and low quality fat sources from throughout the pig. To improve stability at room temperature, lard is often hydrogenated. Hydrogenated lard sold to consumers typically contains fewer than 0.5g of transfats per 13g serving. Lard is also often treated with bleaching and deodorizing agents, emulsifiers, and antioxidants, such as BHT. These treatments make lard more consistent and prevent spoilage. (Untreated lard must be refrigerated or frozen to prevent rancidity.)

Consumers seeking a higher-quality source of lard typically seek out artisanal producers of rendered lard, or render it themselves from leaf lard or fatback.

Government has no business telling adults what they can put in their own bodies.

Try telling that to all the Drug Warriors on this forum.

If somebody gets desperate for sprinkles, and let’s face it, some people do, you could make an art project out of using boiled or fried rice and food coloring. This is if you just had to have something on top. Or cereal; as in Rice Krispies.

Yesterday’s satire is today’s reality. All we’re missing is what the people in the FDA really think.

[Kackikat]

I thought all of that was now a vegetable concentrate, not lard.

[dalereed]

Don’t tell me not to eat ransfat,I’ll kick your sorry ass!!!!

[Impy]

Time to abolish the FDA?

These unelected phucks have too much power.

[xzins]

Sprinkles are banned but Gay blood donors are peachy keen.

These people are evil.

[Gasshog]

[tubebender]

[tubebender]

Why just yesterday 9 people died from trans-fat on my street...

[tubebender]

We purchase pure lard at Safeway to fry chicken like my Mama used to make. I hope your wrong because I’m only 81...

[morphing libertarian]

Buy Manteca at your local Hispanic food place.

Go swallow a lead ball and see what happens, you will see the entire lead ball in the toilet the next day.Go soak it in a glass of water for years and you will see no change in it.

[ForYourChildren]

Hmmm, I must have an older copy of the constitution. Mine doesn’t give sprinkle authority to the federal government.
