Nope, my cholesterol is checked regularly and is very good, lard and beef dripping is fantastic to cook with just don't do it everyday.

Oh, its OK to use butter these days, turns out you don't drop dead after eating a round of buttered toast :D

I use butter every day :D and nothing else :D
 
Off topic but anyone worried about oils and cooking for health, try coconut oil, the body doesn't store it! Just burns it off! Maybe an idea BR, a small coconut plantation next to the field beans :-)

I suspect they would go the way of the olive trees....which don't seem to like -15C :(
 
I got a pot grown one to fruit in Hampshire - they don't seem to overwinter outdoors in Lincs though :(
 
Meant to add - there are two commercial olive farms maturing in the UK now !

Sorry for the thread hijack Earthgirl - back to those lovely scotch eggs - and my wife is away so I'm wasting away :(
 
Olives don't like our humidity, (even on a dry day in our country put a tied up bag of cardboard and paper recycling out in the sun and give it an hour... and watch the condensation form in the bag... )they like a dry heat and don't actually mind cold nights as long as the soil is well drained. :) as BR said they don't like -15 but will be ok down to -5 to -10. All the new growth will be 'burnt' off but the main tree will be ok as long as the soil is very well drained :)
 
No chap - one in Kent, one in Devon
