go reread your copy of the man who ate everything..he talks about the consistency of pure lard at room temperature (solid, but squishable) and makes it sound happy and enticing.

Or, you could ask any red state housewife age 50+. She’ll know.

Walking around Shanghai streets at sunrise, I once turned a corner and saw two men digging a long pole into a sewer/gutter outside a restaurant and glopping gobs of white gunk into a bucket on their bike..I followed them as they moved on and watched them sell it to a street vendor who furtively crouched down to strain it into a cooking oil can…

Scarred me for life it did!
