A few weeks ago I had a chicken thigh leftover from the tray of four I bought the cats - they're just too fussy or too spoilt but they turned their noses up at the third one. Anyway I was roasting a joint of pork and added the last thigh to the pan. It was yummy - reminded me a bit of KFC. Searched again for a KFC recipe and noticed for the first time that LARD was listed as the cooking fat - perhaps that's the real secret. So now I need to buy LARD - not available at Countdown. Where do you buy it from?

lard is just fat, buy from supermarket. I wouldn't, chicken is fatty anyway, there is such a thing as too much. I would be wary of eating something the cat refused, they have an awesome sense of smell, better than dogs, it may have been getting a bit aged.

Lard and dripping are quite different. We don't eat an excess of fatty food so I'm not worried about eating a bit of lard occassionally. As for the cats turning their noses up at 'fresh' meat - they do it VERY often and I always wonder if they know something that we don't.

Lard? Nah. My only reasoning is that Jews or Muslims globally wouldnt be able to eat KFC.
Could be wrong though.

My cats like change so they will ignore food if they think there is something better coming
