Why do people talk bad about lard?

[Penis Drager]

Lard's typically cheaper and has a much healthier fat profile than butter. Why does lard get such a bad rap but butter is just seen as normal shit that you can put on everything?

It's because people are too scared to live off the fat of the land.

In all seriousness it's because of the name, lard, it just doesn't sound like something healthy.

That gives me an idea. Just rebrand it as Keto Spread or Keto Magic and watch the keto retards eat it up, literally.

There's probably some kind of story about wartime lard shortages and advertising campaigns by Big Butter. Similar thing happened with margarine supplanting butter in some areas, before people realized margarine was a death food.

-edit- here's an article from NPR. They blame Upton Sinclair, followed by Procter & Gamble (specifically their attempt to push Crisco onto the market).

So actually, sounds like your answer is commie lies and advertising campaigns by Big Margarine, not Big Butter.

I don't know if it's true but I heard this place cooks their meat in lard.

I think that's your answer.

I unironically want to go to Heart Attack Grill.

People have died eating that shit. That makes it a challenge.

If I ever go back to Las Vegas I will definitely eat there. TMI I used to live there but had no idea it existed. I've talked to friends that said it's not really that tasty, but it is novel.

Lard is fucking awesome.

I take this back, lard is pretty badass

in the instructions for my deep fryer it specifically states to NEVER use butter to deep fry in it.

I read this line & think "who the fuck did this so they had to cover this in the instructions?"
