Use lard.

[finn]

Use lard when cooking instead of crisco. Things just turn out better. It is arguably healthier too.

I've been using lard for a while but this is my first lard crust and it is fucking sublime. Obviously the picture doesn't show anything but I can tell you -- it is flaky and wonderful.


As a side bonus, your food will be safe from vegans and religious fanatics.

Lard? Healthy?!?!

[finn]

Yeah, currently people are scared of Trans fats and hydrogenated whatsits and they are turning to good all natural pork fat to avoid them. I don't really know what to believe or care.

Lard? Healthy?!?!

And you can use any left over lard for greasing suppressed bullets so they don't stick in the bore.

I wonder how lard would work in my wet can.

And if you shoot a Muslim with those bullet , they wont go to heaven and get laid
they become unclean because of the pig fat

Can't have carnitas without lard, but you have to use the fresh lard from a local carneceria.

I don't think you use that kind for pie crust, though.

[Twinsen]

Who would think that lard is less healthy than crisco? It's pure fat either way, just one comes from a factory, right?

[finn]

Yeah I might try to track down some of the good stuff. I can't imagine tortillas without lard either.

So lard is healthy huh? I guess Michael Moore is good for something afterall.

[m24armorer]

Yes, but he has to be rendered fat........

[Maser]

No problem with that. Mythbusters already proved it's possible to polish a turd.

[Hush]

Here you go, make your own healthy lard, its simple.

Scene: Military active duty, cold war ongoing, West Germany.

Gasthaus: Best fuckin beer we've ever had. Basket of french fries.

"MotherF--K ARE THESE GOOD!" Chomp Chomp. "Another basket NOW, Gasthaus wench!"

Gasthaus woman compliantly pulls out a gigantic package of pure, processed pig fat and replenishes the fryer. Runs potatoes through slicing machine, dumps in boiling lard, and produces more manna for the arrogant Americans.

I still remember those fries. Try lard in your deep fryer and enjoy the taste-bud explosion that will result.

Ahhh, bringing back memories there. I could retire at some of those German gasthauses. It is amazing that a town with nothing but a brewery and gasthaus could be so wonderful. The upside of retiring in a place like that is that you'd only have a couple years before the fatty soups and massive amount of wheat beer completely destroyed your cardiovascular system.
