Again, I'm telling y'all.
Leaf lard!!
Yep. I've got lots of air tight packages of pork fat from pastured pigs I bought from a local homesteading family. From time to time I open a package and render lard for cooking. It's the perfect fat/oil for cooking at high temps. Very healthy.
Like I said, this was standard in America till the processed food industry started paying for research suggesting that vegetable oils where healthy and animal fats unhealthy, this to promote the sale of vegetable oils which had a high profit margin. It was shortly after that big switch to vegetable oils that Americans started dying off from heart attacks and cancer at high rates.
PS Raw olive oil is great for your health in moderation, but it's not a good idea to deep fry with it. Saute is OK.
