And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
"Crisco is a brand of shortening (introduced in June 1911 by Procter & Gamble). It was the first to be made entirely of vegetable oil (originally cottonseed oil)." A question: . . . why is it bad for you?
Thanks for the link to the x post. I had not heard of that account before so I asked Grok if the claims were accurate. Grok said basically, yes. https://x.com/i/grok/share/893fc1b0bd7643d3b4ca90daba640a4f I’ve recently been stripping all my cast iron in an electrolysis tank and reseasoning with beef tallow I rendered. Very happy with it so far.
I guess an electrolysis tank gets everything, but I find putting the cast iron in the oven and setting it on 'clean' pretty much gets all of the seasoning out, too, allowing me to re-season freshly with whatever I want.
A few years ago, I got the recipe for his mom's chocolate chip cookies from the late, great Gerard Van Der Leun at American Digest. The recipe calls for Crisco and that's just what you do when the recipe is called "The Holy Cookie".
Useless , unless your bicycle chain needs lube. Burns like gasoline if ya' need to start a fire. Flax seed oil, too expensive, or bacon grease on my cast iron.
My mom used to bake pies, cakes and cookies from scratch in the 1960s and early 70s. She gave it up after the Crisco reformulation - they never tasted as good after that.
Can you imagine using that as a selling point of any foodstuff? You might as well say, 'it'll push a turd'.
ReplyDeleteLard or tallow worked long before that abomination.

ReplyDeletePoison? I grew up on Crisco and I'm 80. No a covid shot either. Media is filled with lies.
DeleteGeorge Burns made it to 100, smoking cigars and drinking whiskey every day. Don't mean it's healthy!

ReplyDeleteThe oil is fine. Problem is that it's been hydrogenated. Not a good thing. Great for making pie crusts, though.

ReplyDeleteIndustrial lubricant repurposed for human consumption (cottonseed oil).

ReplyDeleteJust never use Crisco as a sexual lubricant--that stuff is shortening!
