There might be something to that… You just never know. I mean Grandpa Brown was pretty chipper (when he wasn’t leering at the nurses) and he used to eat lard sandwiches during the Great Depression.

I may just give it a try.

    The bottom of the poster says that the information is brought to you by the “Lard Information Council.” In the world of abbreviations, that is L.I.C. I second the ewww.

    I used to eat lard most days. My momma would cook chips (fries) in a huge frying pan - the lard would stay in the pan, and solidify overnight, and then be re-heated and used the next day for more lovely, beef tasting chips! Yum!!!!!

    If bacon grease qualifies as lard, which I admit I don’t know, it was pretty good for doing popcorn in, before microwave. But as for lard sandwiches, I think that would *cause* a depression.
