Who deep fry's with lard or crisco? My Mother always used Crisco. I have been using Canola oil.

I use Canola as well unless frying a turkey, then it's peanut oil.

I vote crisco for frying, but lard for baking.

I don't know what's in Crisco, but

Natural Oils are easiest for our bodies to absorb.

Animal fats/oils really are only good for those walking 10 miles a day.

Plant oils have less of the bad chloresterol.

Hydrogenated oils are generally believed to be artery cloggers. We use peanut and canola for frying. Butter and even lard is healthier than Crisco. Lard ain't too good for you either but for some things, it just can't be replaced.

We use Vegetable oil due to food allergies.

I use vegetable or olive oil 90 % of the time.. bacon grease once in a rare while, for gravy or frying potatos.

Little Kopit;

Check your resourses, Plants and Plant oils have NO colesterol.
