But beyond Food posts have that effect on everyone, this is why it is not recommended to look at them at night. Good thing you were at the right place in the right time, to get something sweet :)
You're right, there was a time, when the only fat used was pork fat. My grandmother's time for example. She always had to have at last 40L pork fat at the beginning of winter, otherwise she would have panicked. Thinking back ... oh boy 🤦♀, but that's how she grew up and refused t change.
We have pork fat here, you can buy it at the grocery store, but no thanks. Sweets made with pork fat have a heavy taste and I don't like it.
My dear friend, thanks for the nice words, you're always a gentleman. Have a nice evening 😊
