Bonus pts for pursuing atherosclerosis all the more rapidly! :D
That fake butter will clog your arteries. Me, I have no detectable plaque in my heart. They looked for it over and over. My family has a history, too. I stopped eating trans fat in the mid 90's, that's probably why. I also ate no meat for 21 of the last 25 years. Just started eating bacon again this year. Once a month treat.
Yup, via hydrogenated oils. Probably not too great for overall health, either. Old bacon grease was mainly what I was referring to, though.
Eh, I don't mean to nitpick or critique your diet though, and I apologise for my earlier, snarky comment. I posted it when a bit tipsy on strong beer, feeling kinda pettily self-righteous and all.
Anyway, sounds like you're taking care of yourself, so bravo to that. My family also has a 'history,' too, which is why I tend to try to be as alert as possible about diet. Peace out...
Bacon grease, and saturated fat in general, dont present a risk to health. They have been vilified for the damage sugar and industrial oils have done.
