Disgusting. No wonder some people are fat.--Will N. 15:19, 15 June 2007 (EDT)

LoL - yes, I know what you mean; makes me glad that I keep kosher :D File:User Fox.png Fox (talk|contribs) 15:30, 15 June 2007 (EDT)

Many supermarkets will disagree with 'always' pork, Fox! AllSensibleDebate 19:04, 16 June 2007 (EDT)

No, "lard" is always pork, the similar product obtained from beef is suet. Really - check it out. As someone who keeps kosher, I wouldn't just pluck the info from the air :D File:User Fox.png Fox (talk|contribs) 19:08, 16 June 2007 (EDT)

Added- nice article in The Grauniad, which also mentions it is non-kosher and produced from "hogs" (if you're a Brit, you'll remember the great lard crisis!) http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,3604,1351987,00.html File:User Fox.png Fox (talk|contribs) 19:13, 16 June 2007 (EDT)

I do know, Fox, I was simply pointing out a misconception amongst product labellers (sorry for the double 'l', I'm an English speller) AllSensibleDebate 19:24, 16 June 2007 (EDT)

Supermarket labelling... lol. They don't even read their own sell-by dates :D the country's going to hell in a handcart; well, according to Littlejohn, anyway ;) File:User Fox.png Fox (talk|contribs) 19:32, 16 June 2007 (EDT)
