I'm old enough to remember when the cholesterol wars raged on TVs and in the media and people shied away from butter. But having seen other fads come and go, I largely ignored the controversy and continued using butter and whole milk for consumption and cooking. I've always lived by the maxim, Moderation in all things.
It seems to have worked OK. I'm alive today and still very active, do the gym 5 days a week, row 10 miles per week on a rowing machine, hike, and engage in all sorts of activities. But I have started losing friends and family to diseases like obesity, heart problems, and (most likely) COVID jabs... which I also refused to take.
I'm pretty sure that the people who know me think I'm a bit of an "odd duck" and a contrarian who doesn't buy into every new fad that comes down the pike. I lost a couple of acquaintances during the COVID hoax, but that's OK, I never valued their fake "friendship" to begin with and my life is actually better without them in it. To this day I cringe when I hear people speak of the "PANDEMIC!!", knowing it was a hoax. But why bother correcting them? It's pointless to argue with fools.
When cooking with butter, I like to use the very best that I can find, like Irish butter or, when I can find it, butter made by a local Amish community.
But have you priced real butter lately? ARGHHHH!!! Take about setting your hair on fire and pissing you off all day, just take a walk down the dairy and meat aisles of a grocery store and see just how much the deep state tries to keep us from purchasing real food. A pound of good butter should not be five bucks. It ought to be only a couple of bucks. And $20 per pound for a rib eye steak!!!!! To me that is darn near criminal. Yet, I try my best to keep man-made foods out of my body and supply it with what God has provided to us. Eggs, bacon, ham, ground beef, and no sugar. I'm feeling better. Once you get the crap out of your diet you begin to cure your ails.
So very true. I have lived by my own instincts for a very long time, but it was the COVID hoax that really heightened my awareness and when I took over my own health decisions. I do go to a doctor for annual checkups and blood-work, but I take anything he says with a grain of salt and a teaspoon of skepticism. I know that basically he's a pill pusher and works, not for me, but for some pharmaceutical company.
My doctor tried to push the jab on my husband and I and I flatly refused much to his dismal. he truly is a pill pusher. When he suggested I needed statins, I researched them and told him I wouldn't take them or cholesterol lowering drugs. he has resolved himself to the fact that I am there for a yearly check up some blood work and that is it and only because I had cancer 24 yrs ago.
Similar story here... throat cancer in 2013, due to exposure to radionuclides where I worked, got through that OK but have since taken charge of my own health and well-being. I figure if I keep rejecting my doctor's pills he will fire me and I'll go elsewhere for my checkups. At this point, I don't really care.
So very true. I have lived by my own instincts for a very long time...or is that still small voice ?
"Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high minded, and that they trust not in uncertain riches, but in the living God, (which giveth us abundantly all things to enjoy.) " -- 1 Timothy 6 : 17 -1599 Geneva
Hmmmm, you might be correct, yet i dont wanna pay $30 a year for the prison buying less expensive better quality butter. I'll take that $30 and just go to my local supermarket. Good idea though if you desire to shop at Costco or Sams
I watched one of those survival shows and this guy killed an animal and cut off all the fat to save it and secured the meat, and animals came and stole all the fat and left the meat. That told me all I needed to know about fat and have been enjoying it (in moderation) ever since.
When I cook bacon, my wife eats around the fat and discards it... I tend to eat the whole thing and sometimes even pick up what she's left and have that too. One of my favorite meats is beef brisket, and I like to saute it in butter, drop in chopped green onions, and two farm fresh eggs (I get them locally from a farmer friend), and top it with Havarti cheese. It's a rather rich breakfast, but I work out so much that any caloric overload is used up... and I stay a consistent 173 pounds on a 6-foot frame.
Several of my contemporaries ask me how I keep so trim, and I tell them about my gym workout activities and all the other things I do, and that's where I lose them... "Sounds like too much work," they often say. Well yeah... living a long healthy life is hard damned work.
I always eat the entire slice of bacon, it's too tasty not to! My dad would always eat around the fat and leave the fat. He was thin and wound up having a heart attack as soon as he retired. Not saying skipping the fat was the issue, just saying what's the point in being so careful lol.
Ahh that reminds me of my visits to the Carter Fold. I grew up in TN but we were super close to the VA border and Dad would pop over for the cheap cigarettes and the Carter Fold visits. I got to see Johnny Cash there!
Yeah that was the show! The guy was not fat to begin with and was losing weight - after a certain amount of loss they pull you out of the competition. He was really great at survival and wound up winning. It's a great show for learning survival tips! I only watched that one season but I'd love to go back and watch the rest.
One of my favorite shows. My family doesn’t understand why I like it so much, and it can be hard to explain. There’s a miniseries Alone Survival Skills where past contestants compete on a project you may like. Think it’s on Hulu.
My elderly aunt exactly!! Followed her cardiologist recommendations for decades. Religiously!! No butter, only turkey bacon, no real ice cream, etc.
A neurologist told us that her brain was actually shrinking and she would be dead in 6 mos! She was healthy otherwise, some dementia but not debilitating. He was right . . . almost exactly 6 mos later. : (
He said: "We are animals, we make cholesterol!" He also said that eggs contain lecithin which processes the natural cholesterol. Eggs are now good for us, again, always.
He said this decades ago! Like the 1970s or whenever that bad advice was pushed on us.
How in the world he knew all this, before the internet etc.?? I was impressed at the time, I am more impressed now that the truth is finally surfacing.
HOW could he have known and confidently proclaimed that??:
Native intelligence, he was actually a brilliant person who could evaluate information;
knowledge of animals and plants as a farmer;
short-wave radio which was the chans before there were the chans;
a couple of print publications that spoke seriously to these issues.
God Bless my honest Dad who would speak out against any and all proclamations that made no sense to him! while many families followed the "dietary guidance."
I am now thinking that "dietary guidance" even 50 years ago! may not have been merely ignorant science, but as we now understand, intended??
May God Help Us! The government has proved to be incompetent at best.
Technically there is no limit to vitamin C uptakes other than how quickly your body can use the vitamin. But each person is different which is why following any guideline upper boundary is pointless.
More easier to calculate the minimum vitamin C intake is needed for ALL humans. We are not cats and we can not make vitamin C.
Now that Beef Farmers are competing less with Argentina and corn fed beef has sky rocketed. The American Grass Fed Beef Industry is probably a viable pursuit these days.
There's no difference with unthawed butter after freeing it, which is different than say, cheese, which can be frozen, but becomes easier to crumble after being unthawed
I do the same thing and have for years. Buy in bulk and freeze. Almost no need for preservatives if you eat it fast enough after thawing. I’d bet my family eats enough to not need it
This is what happens when you go against nature and think your chemistry is superior to what God created and what Humans 'evolved' into (or if you prefer acclimatized over a long period of time).
The phrase "Better living through Chemistry" is the poison pill that the west swallowed hook line and sinker. This thought-terminating cliche has become the basis of scientism dogma and why people think margarine is better than butter; and why seed oils are good and better than tallow and lard; and why 1/3 or more of our country have unnaturally colored kool aid hair and another 1/3 spend a fortune on weird chemical pills and powders they put into slurries and drink thinking that's better than eating raw veg and fruit.
My grandmother rendered her own lard, fried everything in It and lived to 85. She would have lived longer if a train hadn’t hit her when she was 65 and spent 6 months in a hospital.
My great-grandfather and great-grandmother ran a hog farm in the mountains. They ate ham, bacon, fatback, chitlins, pig brains and cooked with lard their whole life. He died in the field at 106, she died a couple of years later at 103. They also raised 10 kids during their lifetimes.
Best biscuits I ever ate were made with lard from our pigs. My granny kept it in a King syrup can and would reuse it to fry chicken that we raised. Damn, we were living the high life and didn’t even know it
Yes. it was 1951. She was carrying to big shopping bags and they was no guard at the gate that day (before electricity operated the gates) and a freight train bumped and threw her under a car. She broke so many bones they thought she would never walk again but she did. She sued the railroad for negligence and won 5 years later $30,000, which she and my grandfather lived in until they died by 1970.
She was 4 foot ten and weighed about 85 pounds. Cooked from sunup until bedtime.
Mom always had a bacon grease container going on the counter. We have revived that. Hubby bought it and LOVES saving the bacon grease for eggs etc.!
Now I am wondering, is bacon grease like lard? Can I use it in pie crusts instead of lard? I don't want my pies to taste like bacon! OK maybe the quiche.
My Granny saved her bacon grease and cooked eggs and potatoes in it every morning. She’d add it with ham when boiling green beans. Don’t think she used it for biscuits, though, to your point on flavor. She’d use lard or crisco.
My mom used to make that too! With potatoes in it, bacon and diced ham, in a thin ish gravy
Yeah, yum. My kids wolfed it down. Today they say they don't like green beans. I laugh. Tell em, ya'll SURE ate them as kids!
In WW II people had to use margarine! Butter was saved for the troops I guess, or some other purpose.
Fats were used in the manufacture of munitions. "Fats were crucial during World War II for producing glycerin, which is a key ingredient in explosives."
That is one reason the Germans starved for lack of fats in WW II. For munitions.
Yes our depression-era and WW II era ancestors were denied healthy fat consumption!
I've heard that sometimes if you're craving food like that, it could be something in the food that your body is deficient in and wants
in your example, that might not be the case as much
some vegans craving meat though for example could be vitamin b12 deficient or deficient in other things
the "pure carnivores" I've heard can get low in whatever causes scurvy (lack of vitamin C I think)... which might make them crave some kind of fruit I'd guess
In experimenting with both vegan and carnivore, I find myself liking common sense omnivore-ism (just eating meat and a little of everything that isn't meat)
lately the "fruit and meat" diet appeared on my radar, as a remedy to the deficiencies mentioned above (meat as the response to the vegan going b12 deficient; fruits like oranges as a remedy to the carnivore going C deficient)
Modern butter sucks. If I want to spread it I usually have to warm it in the microwave for a few seconds. I've heard it's because they use palm oil in the dairy cattle feed.
Biscuits, butter, and syrup along with bacon or ham. Breakfast staple as I was growing up. Biscuits made from store bought flower but butter from our own milk cows and syrup from our own home grown sugar cane. Bacon or ham from our own hogs. We didn’t know what money was but we sure ate well.
I would argue that they did the same thing with eggs. We heard the hysterics about eating eggs for how many years? All because the yolks have cholesterol. Even now there are people ordering egg white omelets at restaurants or making them at home.
I find the fear campaign against eggs especially ironic given that good nutritionists and people who regularly lift weights will tell you that there's no protein on earth that is as bio-available as an egg, to say nothing of the many nutrients in that egg.
Going back to the original topic of butter, I'd recommend to everyone that you look around your area to see if there are any independent farms selling butter locally. There's some wonderful stuff out there (and of course some so so stuff like with all things).
Best and easy quick to go breakfast for me is some toasted rye bread slathered with butter, drizzled with honey and sprinkle on some cinnamon.
Sure beats any frozen breakast food you can pop in the microwave. Savory, sweet, filling and nutritious. Just enough to get your day started. Also very cost effective too.
I guess that also explains my love for french toast as well.
I believe this is an old video and he was talking about butter and Alzheimer’s. Anyhow it is important everybody knows about this, that’s why I stopped spreading the margarine crap because of this man. I will show it to my sister. Thank you and God bless.
Your liver produces cholesterol, and it's present in all animal-based foods. I'm not saying you're wrong, but, there are much more effective ways of causing disease in a population.

Costco is our answer
Hmmmm, you might be correct, yet i dont wanna pay $30 a year for the prison buying less expensive better quality butter. I'll take that $30 and just go to my local supermarket. Good idea though if you desire to shop at Costco or Sams
Also men need cholesterol to make testosterone. Which I think is another reason the DS went to war against it.
And women need cholesterol to produce all the hormones they need. Cholesterol is needed to produce all hormones.
All boils down to , they want us ALL DEAD.

Sacrilege! The fat's the best bit! I wish I had a wife who did this as that would be heaven lmao
I had no idea fat was that important until I started watching Alone.
Yeah that was the show! The guy was not fat to begin with and was losing weight - after a certain amount of loss they pull you out of the competition.

Thank you!

Especially when she did everything "right" according to the docs!
My Dad, her brother, knew better. Bacon, eggs, butter -- he defended them all decades ago when the "nutrition experts" said they would KILL YOU!
He said: "We are animals, we make cholesterol!" He also said that eggs contain lecithin which processes the natural cholesterol. Eggs are now good for us, again, always.

Hanlon's Razor "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." only applies to individuals.
Governments and corporations just want to hide behind it. The psychopaths running them probably came up with it.
Did you and u/ArmyLady see the Time Travelling Dietician the other day?
So freaking accurate.
Edit: Ah yes you did. They fubared my grandparents with that crap. Assholes.
Yes I saw that!! They fubared my aunt with it too!
Wiring needs it's insulation.
Exactly, fat in food is brain food.
Make Brains Better Again!!
Doctor keeps pushing the statins and I keep refusing.
Tell him to Fuck Off Fren

Not expensive , accept them but don't take them. Will shut him up. Or just move on.
If you can afford it, go for Grass Fed Butter. 🧈
Now that Beef Farmers are competing less with Argentina and corn fed beef has sky rocketed. The American Grass Fed Beef Industry is probably a viable pursuit these days.
Local milk in glass bottles, that have to be returned for the deposit.
Tastes like heaven!! Good for the teeth as well. I let my kids have as much grass fed butter as they wanted, Was expensive but good for them.
I only use butter. Salted. I buy a lot of blocks when it's on sale and freeze it.
unsalted is my choice
You need salt.
I just add salt to mine and then I don’t have to adjust recipes. I do like salted butter more though
Most foods I prepare with have enough sodium so I too go for unsalted butter as it is easier to calculate.
There's no difference with unthawed butter after freeing it, which is different than say, cheese, which can be frozen, but becomes easier to crumble after being unthawed

it is called living "high on the hog" too
Key fact : "in the field"
Have to keep the machine fueled and working to prevent rust.
Train? Seriously?!
Yes. it was 1951. She was carrying to big shopping bags and they was no guard at the gate that day (before electricity operated the gates) and a freight train bumped and threw her under a car. She broke so many bones they thought she would never walk again but she did. She sued the railroad for negligence and won 5 years later $30,000, which she and my grandfather lived in until they died by 1970. She was 4 foot ten and weighed about 85 pounds.

Wow! I’m so sorry !
yes lard is wonderful!
"on a separate and completely unrelated subject"
I like that. 😁
We use butter. You can't bake with margarine. Can't fry eggs with margarine. Used butter for years.
You can fry eggs in bacon fat. The fat is hot, it cooks the eggs, but the fat is not absorbed into the eggs, but yes to the bacon flavor!
Yes! I used to do that too
Mom always had a bacon grease container going on the counter. We have revived that. Hubby bought it and LOVES saving the bacon grease for eggs etc.!

Yum. That's an idea. Bacon grease for dishes it compliments. No, I wouldn't want my cherry pie to taste like bacon either tho.
The best was the bacon gravy for green beans fresh from the garden! YUM!
My mom used to make that too! With potatoes in it, bacon and diced ham, in a thin ish gravy Yeah, yum. My kids wolfed it down. Today they say they don't like green beans. I laugh. Tell em, ya'll SURE ate them as kids!
Butter dont you mean margarine. Butter is ok its been around a long time and was not engineered as you call it.
Margarine is what they tried to get everyone to go to and most did.
In WW II people had to use margarine! Butter was saved for the troops I guess, or some other purpose.
Fats were used in the manufacture of munitions. "Fats were crucial during World War II for producing glycerin, which is a key ingredient in explosives."

Starve your own populace for the "war effort"??
Great sources of natural cholesterol
Chicken Salmon And my wife's favorite Shrimp
not a vegan but it seems a lot of people can live on that diet, at least temporarily
certainly the synthetics could be avoided like margarine
I've heard that sometimes if you're craving food like that, it could be something in the food that your body is deficient in and wants
in your example, that might not be the case as much
some vegans craving meat though for example could be vitamin b12 deficient or deficient in other things

Modern butter sucks. If I want to spread it I usually have to warm it in the microwave for a few seconds. I've heard it's because they use palm oil in the dairy cattle feed.
Hot buttered biscuits with molasses poured on them is delicious!
Biscuits, butter, and syrup along with bacon or ham. Breakfast staple as I was growing up. Biscuits made from store bought flower but butter from our own milk cows and syrup from our own home grown sugar cane. Bacon or ham from our own hogs. We didn’t know what money was but we sure ate well.
This entire thread is making me hungry!!!
Fresh baked bread, still warm from the oven, with butter on it, is one of my favorite things, ever. Now you've made me hungry. Haha!
I would argue that they did the same thing with eggs. We heard the hysterics about eating eggs for how many years? All because the yolks have cholesterol. Even now there are people ordering egg white omelets at restaurants or making them at home.
I find the fear campaign against eggs especially ironic given that good nutritionists and people who regularly lift weights will tell you that there's no protein on earth that is as bio-available as an egg, to say nothing of the many nutrients in that egg.
Going back to the original topic of butter, I'd recommend to everyone that you look around your area to see if there are any independent farms selling butter locally. There's some wonderful stuff out there (and of course some so so stuff like with all things).
Best and easy quick to go breakfast for me is some toasted rye bread slathered with butter, drizzled with honey and sprinkle on some cinnamon.
Sure beats any frozen breakast food you can pop in the microwave. Savory, sweet, filling and nutritious. Just enough to get your day started. Also very cost effective too.
I guess that also explains my love for french toast as well.
I believe this is an old video and he was talking about butter and Alzheimer’s. Anyhow it is important everybody knows about this, that’s why I stopped spreading the margarine crap because of this man. I will show it to my sister. Thank you and God bless.
Amen
Your liver produces cholesterol, and it's present in all animal-based foods. I'm not saying you're wrong, but, there are much more effective ways of causing disease in a population.
