They are soybean, canola, and olive. This makes me want to try lard for frying. I am beginning to think that lard might not be nearly as bad for you as everyone thinks it is. After all look at eggs, twenty years ago it was thought that eating eggs were very bad for you. Now they are supposed to be very good for you. I seem to think the same argument might be applied to lard.
