There are many kinds of oils today, such as corn oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, olive oil etc. But how about the lard? Do you use it to cook?
In the past it might be much more common for us to use lard to cook, but not today. As people get used to use the peanut oil or corn oil much more. I heard that actually there are many benefits to use the lard.
Tonight I tried to make it and it was quite easy. That's cool I can get another kind of oil to cook.

When I was a kid, my mom used lard to cook with but, if I use any oil at all, I prefer olive oil.

Lard is good. I use tallow in all my cooking an frying. I get beef fat from the butcher's and make tallow from beef fat drippings. I never use polyunsaturated cooking oils ( vegetable oil, sunflower, canola, cotton seed
oil, soy beans oil, rice bran oil...).

@porwest I use canola oil or butter, but Dale does use Crisco (the all vegetable one) for frying fish.

I'm pretty sure lard is very unhealthy. My grandmother years ago made the best biscuits with lard, but I've always used canola oil.

Butter, lard and bacon grease are far superior to all those liquid oils. I use them when I have them but I don't use a lot or often.

I use vegetable oil. I feel lard is high in cholesterol.

I use olive oil or corn oil. Lard may be too fatty.
