I guess I won't be one of their customers any more.
I was wondering what they were up to when I saw some of their recent advertising.
They have sold their soul to Tr**p & RFK Jr. thinking that they would capture the MAGA's as customers.
It's really funny what people will do for money.

I myself use lard for biscuits and bacon dripping for other cooking option like cornbread
Explain why it's a tRump RFK thing please.

(107,241 posts)You can fry fries in just about any kind of oil or fat you like. Vegetable is usually the most common. Some places occasionally use peanut oil (like Five Guys) and there's very few, if any places that use beef tallow or lard.
And also literally anything RFK Jr recommends, the opposite is true. Fuck that guy.

Leaning into it to try to gain customers who like that make sense.
I think the health-influencer driven anti seed-oil trend is dumber than a bag of hammers, but whatever.

Then RFK Jr praised Steak 'n Shake on an episode of Hannity. The logic is utterly inscrutable. I should know--I asked both a Certified Diabetes Educator and a cardiologist about this, and they just shook their heads. No one should be eating this stuff on a regular (or even semi-regular) basis.

If everyone knew how bad the beef tallow smells they wouldn't want anything made with it. We had tanker cars of the stuff at P&G.
