  1. Can you imagine using that as a selling point of any foodstuff? You might as well say, 'it'll push a turd'.

    1. Poison? I grew up on Crisco and I'm 80. No a covid shot either. Media is filled with lies.

    2. George Burns made it to 100, smoking cigars and drinking whiskey every day. Don't mean it's healthy!

  4. "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?

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

  6. 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".
