When I was a kid growing up in the sticks, my mother would save the bacon grease and we would walk into the woods to dump it. That shit will clog up pipes and we treated it like it was a deadly poison.

We used to throw it out too, but then I remember my dad saying they used to spread bacon grease on bread. Damn tasty, and also great for frying things in.
I no longer believe saturated fats are deadly.
Chik fil a used to be awesome when they were still using peanut oil to fry their chicken. Then they switched to the sex crime oil (RAPEseed), and the flavor was never the same.
Just use regular butter. When people cooked with it all the time, they were a lot thinner.
But I've decided that:
1. I just don't like the taste of them.
2. They are probably not good for you.
Cottonseed oil is actually toxic until chemically altered and refined. It's also known as Crisco, for crystallised cottonseed oil.
I know that food makers like them because they are extremely cheap and last a long time, but that doesn't mean you should eat them.
I was looking through Trader Joe's for foods without them, and they are literally in almost every packaged food, including breads. I could not even find hummus without them, so I made my own hummus the other day, and it's very good!
It was just a can of chickpeas, tahini, crushed fresh garlic, olive oil, cayenne, salt, lemon juice in a Cuisinart. Takes a few minutes to get it smooth. Definitely tastes better than theirs.
