She passed years later with her veins and arteries full of that wonderful bacon grease, but I can bet that she was happy!

A big no-no now but a canister of bacon grease sitting on the stove was just as natural as salt and pepper shakers back when I was growing up. Used to flavor most everything with a little bacon grease. Anyone else ever have wilted lettuce salad as part of the meal? Chop up a head of lettuce, a small onion, toss then pour a little hot bacon grease over it for salad dressing...
