About Goya Manteca Refined Lard, 2.5 Pound
Overall Feedback:
82% positive
90% found it to be a healthy cooking option
I have stopped consuming vegetable oils as I believe that lard is healthier.
80% appreciated the high-quality ingredients, though 20% had concerns about sourcing
Using lard instead of vegetable shortening results in better quality tamales and tortillas and gives the food a more authentic flavor.
I am disappointed with the hydrogenated lard as it is similar to poor quality Crisco.
71% liked its smooth and creamy texture, but 29% found it grainy
I have never cooked with lard before, and some people say bad things about using it to cook with.
I used the lard twice and found it had an unpleasant smell and taste, which caused an upset stomach.
