Disagree,
Foie Fat, olive oil, bacon grease, butter......all may become rancid....
Freezer is the best option for long term storage.....Vegetable shortening and
commercial lard have no liquids and more than not, have chemicals added.
Food Poisoning ranks right up there with a broken tooth for me, better not
to risk it......many leave these fats out, but, the plain truth is, most don't cook three times a day, 365 days a year anymore....long gone are the days of
keeping a big coffee can or pot of grease or fat on the back of the stove....I
however do cook most meals at home and do keep a pretty good amount of
lard and bacon grease......
