lard is far better than any cooking oil or grease in a store these days...

and... and

I have kept factory pig lard in my fridge for up to two months without it going bad. Maybe I have been lucky.

tamales are supposed to be made with lard

I save all the drippings from frying bacon.

yeah my uncle was a butcher. he cooked with lard

his food always came out really good

the old breeds of hogs... heritage types they call m... had lard from heaven that never spoiled... some breeds were grown just for the lard

these are the little things you miss out on when you live a packaged existence

i cant wait to start hunting

I'm curious I just noticed Kommandant Andrew up in the right hand corner. Does he volunteer at summer camps?

those old breeds could come up to weight on forage... didn't need to b fed... very popular w/the pioneers

many got away tho.... where ur wild pigs of today come from... pigs were imported from europe

mine?

oh is that why they're like an invasive species?

yep

no wonder they breed like nuts if you leave them unchecked

same species as the wild european one

Sus scrofa

actually they r a combo of domesticated early forage breeds

the hogs carry diseases aswell and destroy everything in their path

there was a bit of a scandal when a famous footballer Edinson Cavani made a video of him huntil wild boar on a helicopter

actually hhogs r great for forest floor management... if u cull them enuff

they aren't called natures plow for nothin....lol

not if they're bathing in the water supply tainting it with their feces

deer do that too... its common to all natural waterways... everything shits n m

well

Uruguay has almost no forests really

grassland

lots of grassland

thats why u must boil everything but spring water b4 u drink/use it

boiled water tastes flat tho... shake it b4 u drink it to make it taste right

wells > rivers

it needs air

Oh did not know that helps

I saw hermit added a new section w/ prepper talk

I guess that's what happens when logging in sporadically

Now if he would create a channel for hobbies, like carpentry etc.

you can talk about carpentry here

if anyone else wants to talk about it i guess

I dunno if there's enough to talk about with hobbies that couldn't be obtained by being on a carpentry forum haha
