    Yup. It’s well studied which is why when someone has a heart attack the recommendation is essentially eliminating all saturated and trans fat. (See the DASH diet).

    Basically, if the fat is solid at room temp, it’s unhealthy.

          So your telling me I should be scooping out the contents that harden on top of the crock pot instead of letting them melt back into the pulled pork for flavor… Ugh. I’m lazy so I usually just want to put the pot in the fridge at night, then back on high when I get home, by the time everything else is done it’s basically back to boiling.

            Tbf unless you eat pulled pork daily I don’t think it’ll be a problem.

            It’s like that old saying … “Everything in moderation”.

              I had to cut back on eggs. I have hens out back that I just let free roam but I hadnt been giving them away fast enough. So I hard boiled a couple dozen and was eating them throughout the day just as snacks to keep food costs low. After day twot I realized I needed to slow my intake. Just got to loop more people into my egg ring. Luckily people like free eggs right now.

              Come spring I’ll just put a thing down by the road so people can grab them when they drive by, but I do worry kids might have a field day with that lol

          Isn’t that just a measure of the melting point of different fats? And emulsions really muddle that line.
