I also add it to my butter when I saute onions or any veggie, so the butter won't burn. I use natural bacon no preservatives, no additives. The grease is pure white not gray or discolored. DH's grandpa eats eggs and bacon every morning and is 92! Though he has had health problems in the last 4 years it is more from age than what he eats.

The natural stuff is much less saltier. Use a tablespoon ful on the dog's food every once in a while. My mom always did this along with a raw egg. The dogs loved it and they always had a nice shiny coat. I'm hungry for some bacon now. :9
