Crisco is a Vegetable Shortening and is actually not too bad for cooking

Isn't Crisco's main job to be cheap?
I think to make Fried Chicken in anything else the oil would cost more

In the yuppie health food store down the street they have high end
vegetarian Crisco packaged the same way. Won't kill you anywhere near as
fast or as painfully.
