Dang, is it supposed to be stored in a fridge? I got my dear departed Mom's bacon grease bowl, pretty faded white bowl with flowers and a lid. Ever since I was a kid it set on the counter waiting to go into a cast iron skillet. We never stored it in the fridge, maybe it never lasted long enough to go bad. Some times we just fry bacon up to get the grease, makes a great snack, dog likes it when we do.

I think my Dad ate bacon every day. Darn bacon finally got the best of my Dad when he was 84. But, it could of been loosing Mom that killed him....
