What is cooking oil? Seed oil? Cause no thank you!! Luckily everyone seems to think animal fats are no good, so my family gets grass fed tallow for $30 a gal

  Tallow and lard are definitely excellent alternatives - but yea I was suggesting seed oils like peanut, safflower, sunflower or canola/rapeseed. Rendered fats have a weird reputation as there were health crazes that demonized it in the past but it's like most other oils - use in moderation... it's excellent to keep on hand though as it really makes a difference in baking.

  Grass fed and finished or just fed? A lot of "Grass fed" is then "Corn finished". I'd love to get "grass finished" tallow for anywhere near that price.

    Nah just fed. It's a local farmer. Only the last two months are grain. I was getting Grass fed and Finished before I moved. Grass fed and grain finished meat tastes better though the health benefits may be lesser. IDK
