I keep a lot of fat on hand
Some call it Lard, or in the Hispanic isle in Walmart it is Manteca
I have a box of 12 x 2.5 pound tubs that is going to expire December 2013 and am thinking of making some soap with it and restocking with fresher stock
A 2.5 pound tub is 87 x 120 calories per serving or 10,440 calories, the tub is about 1/2 of a 10lb can (i.e. very small)
The uses for fat are many, first a couple spoonful's in a soup or stew will add much needed calories and flavor, you can also use it in soap making or as makeshift candles.
Does anyone else store FAT?
