There was a time when a can of Crisco could be found in pretty much every kitchen in America, but the shortening has taken quite a hit in recent years. The product was first created as an alternative to lard, which had a bad reputation in the early 20th century, but Crisco eventually developed a bad reputation of its own, due in part to the large amount of trans fats. What exactly is in this cooking product, and does it have a chance of becoming popular again? Let’s take a look at the real reason why people stopped buying Crisco.

If you burn wood for campfires or at home, you can recycle the bacon grease by saturating the wood with some of it. If you don't like the idea, you can just grease up one log for a sort of pilot light to keep the fire going. You can do it on a warm day outdoors and you don't have to touch the grease. Indoors, I suppose a warm oven would do, with lots of newspaper on the floor and maybe a paintbrush to keep things neater.

Its not just how you eat that matters but how much you indulge yourself in it. Over consuming one variety of food / fruits just because its been proven to be "healthy" doesn't always mean one should consume it all the time. As a wise herbal master once said "All food are poison. Therefore all consumption must be in moderate." Exercise is important too. 😊

Crisco has two legitimate uses, in my opinion: 1. Use crisco when seasoning a new cast iron pan or dutch oven. Also for reconditioning an old pan you are restoring to service. 2. Crisco makes a great emergency candle if you have nothing else for light. Stick in a piece of candle wick, a string or other improvised wick and light her up. It will burn for weeks.

You forgot to mention that Murray Raney, who invented a Nickle-aluminum alloy used as a catalyst in the production of Crisco, warned that hydronated oil not be used in the food industry. His intent was that hydronated oil be a substitute for industrial grease sticks in industry. He always believed from the beginning that artificial lard made from his process would be unhealthy.

Scanned the comments to find this. It was NEVER intended to be food. From the beginning they warned of the exact reasons not to use it as such. It's not so much "bad" until you heat it up to cooking temps. Something happens to it chemically that I'm in no way qualified to explain but from what I understand it does bad things to you including the much vaunted "insulin resistance". And if you heat it repeatedly (like for frying oil) those "bad" properties keep building up in it with each heating. I gave up on vegetable oil and margarine years ago because I just didn't like the taste of the food I used it on. Almost out of anger, I went back to "evil" butter and olive oil (which I found out later is NOT a seed oil) fully expecting to be a big fat porker in a couple months. I dropped 5lbs in a month, 8 in a year, changing absolutely nothing else while actually enjoying the taste of my food and having a little more energy. Yes, my HDLs went up slightly but my blood pressure went down, as you would expect with weight loss. I'm not saying this is a "magic bullet" but for me it was the right choice.

Unsaturated - healthy; eat as much as you can; they even boost body defenses. Hydrogenated - avoid at all costs; there is no benefit from them, only increased heart disease and diabetes risk.

That is when it is normally mixed with your food in the frying pan or, otherwise in your food. Let that cool to a body temperature of 98.6 F. and notice that it really is not mixed with your food but instead, separates and turns back into a semi-solid. So, you eat your food warm or hot but it quickly cools to body temp. And the hydrogenated material turns into a coating throughout your digestive system. How well do you think the nutrients in your food will penetrate that layer of grease? I am not a doctor, nutritionist, or any other sort of scientist. I'm just another dumb-ass asking questions......

Better to eat 25% saturated, 75% unsaturated. Which is what chicken fat and pork fat are naturally. Beef fat and sheep fat are 80% saturated.

Crisco shortening has TBHQ in it as an antioxidant. It lengthens the shelf life of fats. Most of the bulk oils used in fast food contain TBHQ, as well as many Keebler products. Reece’s peanut butter cup line all contain it. TBHQ is a chemical, and I’m deathly allergic. I’ve met a few folks who have said that they feel ill after eating fast food and avoid dining in those places. Those folks might want to check this out, especially if things like microwave popcorn, restaurants that use certain brands of liquid butter, bouillon, cookies, crackers (looking at you, Keebler!) have made you ill. (Read labels! Products have added this, moved away from it, and go back to it all the time). Hope this info helps.

TBHQ in cooking fats/oils are typically added at 50ppm - 100ppm. That's extremely low. I doubt that TBHQ itself was the cause of your uncle's issues. Some people just have a low tolerance to oils in their diet. It can cause bloat etc. and the purpose of the gall bladder is to produce bile which emulsifies the oils in the gut. Huge difference on how it works on oils vs fats.

That chicken comes out juicy, crispy and sooooooooo good, with that southern fried taste! I'm sure you can deep fry it with the almond flour and panko. I just haven't perfected deep frying yet. I would try tallow or lard if I try it. No one will ever see me use Crisco, conola oil or any other fake oils for my cooking. If I'm going to make it taste good, then it also has to be good for my body. Saturated fat...good. Trans fat...bad.

Crisco was ORIGINALLY made for lubricating MACHINERY during the war. Those cookies you think are so great would be fabulously better if you eliminate the crisco and use only the butter with a tbsp of heavy whipping creme. The fried chicken would be better fried in lard, before all the health nuts go crazy, I'd much rather use something natural than something pumped full of chemicals and marketed as good for you. Our [mine anyway, I'm over 50]grandparents and great grandparents didn't have all the health problems of today, probably because their foods weren't pumped full of additives and preservatives like today. Toothpaste is full of poison- sodium flouride- and is MARKETED as good and healthy for oral hygiene. CALCIUM fluoride is good for your teeth NOT the sodium flouride that the government says is safe, go pick up your toothpaste tube and read the fine print..it tells you it is poison to call poison control immediately if swallowed, why would that be if its healthy,...research the chemicals in your food and products you use. Fabric softeners are just fragranced poisons to make your clothes smell good, and because everyone wants to be like everyone else TV says it's the best smell .....mmmmm....Where do you think all of the chemicals from making anything goes when there's an overabundance of it?? Margarine is a perfect example as well as crisco......They have to put it somewhere!!! Just because the tv or your dentist or doctor says its ok doesn't mean it is. How will they make a living if they tell us the truth? They all survive off poisoning us ...with a pearly white smile😁

@@threynolds2 Hi! Back in 1976 I took a cake decorating class in school. That was the recipe we were given for the icing to use on the cakes as the crumb coat, the top coat, and for the piping bags. I forget how much Crisco 1 (or 2?) cups, a box of 10X powdered sugar, a teaspoon of vanilla extract or whatever flavor you wanted, and food coloring. We were told that we had to eat our mistakes. Fine for one rose, but after a few mistakes you really wanted to get it right. My mother was kinda grossed out by Crisco frosting; she thought only the piping was going to be Crisco. Even as a tiny child I never did like cake icing. I thought of it as a necessary evil to keep the cake from drying out; I used to scrape it off. After the class, I realized why I didn't like frosting. Take care, stay safe.☺️☮️🖖😷

A lot of commercial bakeries use it to make so-called "buttercream" frosting because it makes a pure white frosting without the ivory tint of real butter. Nobody ever said real buttercream was exactly health food but I'll still take the real thing over fake.

My Great Grandparents lived well into their early 100's . Grandma lived to be 95 . Crisco was used in all their dishes. My Grandparents saved fat off meat to use in making Tamales. No one had any issues related to using oils ! Today compared to 100 years ago more people eat more Fast food & processed fpod which is bad

My great-grandmother was a smoker. She lived to be over 100. That doesn't mean cigarettes are good for you, and that's why anecdotal evidence is NOT what we should use when making health decisions. Edit: also, you're complaining about "processed" foods... what do you think Crisco is? It is unnaturally solidified fat that comes in a big can, lol. It's super processed.

I keep a can of Crisco in the refrigerator all the time. I like it better for greasing pans than Pam, which leaves residue that won’t come off. I don’t do a lot of frying, so I don’t really use it for that. It is great for baked goods, but I also use butter. Don’t really care for the butter flavored Crisco. I will continue to use the regular kind.

I don't know where you got your information about the history of Crisco. It wasn't created specifically to replace lard due to Sinclair's book. (BTW, wasn't fiction.) Briefly, Edwin C. Kayser used the hydrogenation process to harden cottonseed oil as soap oil replacement for P&G. I don't know how they decided it could replace lard for shortening but P&G started to sell it as "Crisco" in 1911. So people have been using it for cooking for over a hundred years. As a child, I saw a hand written recipe book of my great-grandmother's where she used Crisco for several of her recipes. (Pie crust made with Crisco and ACV is great tasting.) "A few short years ago everything was cooked in lard" - You consider 110 years as "a few short years"? Trivia - Crisco is still used by people to make soap. When I first started learning soapmaking, I used it so I could learn the basics without spending a lot of money.
