I haven't moved towards suet/tallow yet, although I see it mentioned sometimes.

I still have a jones for McDonald's fries in tallow. Some sort of study with twenty-somethings that had never had them did a fries taste test with tallow and two other fats and they lit up and were unanimous that it was legendary.



tallow is not uncommon here, and it's pretty great. All things fried in moderation, but it is good, and at some butcher shops it is cheap too.

In this area fatback is commonly used with green beans, as well as other beans, greens, peas, even corn.  When I first moved down here I didn't think I'd like it that much, but it's good, so I could see how bacon would work as well.

For less fat or grease, try smoked turkey wings or necks. Fantastic flavor and a bit healthier. (Nasty woman nag, I know )

When I was living in Berkeley, my grandma sent me a box of Thanksgiving sides—corn, green beans, cranberry sauce, all homemade in glass jars, with a recipe on the lid. The corn is for what we call scalloped corn, a casserole. The green beans had chopped mushrooms in them and the lid said to put in bacon and the Berkeley roommates all howled at the ridiculousness of that but I did it anyway. The vegetarians picked around the meat but admitted that the beans were wonderful. Bacon fat helps everything.

Recreating our humble feast of a little boneless turkey roast, homemade mashed taters and fresh steamed green beans, I'll be counting my blessings for what still is, while seasoning the gravy with a few tears mourning what is gone.

Hang in there.

Dusty Springfield. I loved to hear her unique voice. She was an important part of the rock-n-roll radio experience during the 60's and 70's. I don't hear any of her music on RP. Am I somehow missing it?

There's just two from her in the library... https://radioparadise.com/musi.. And why isn't this in the library...
