For those that still believe that eating animal fat is unhealthy, it
would sound like Heart attack on a plate.

A triple by-pass actually.

What source do you have that fats that are solid at room temperature are
healthy?

I'd suggest you do more research.
More and more, high triglyceride levels appear to cause more damage.

Guess what causes them to be high?

It's not fat...

Mine used to run around 600 mg/dl. when I was in college.
Now they run around 80 mg/dl.

Fat was not what I gave up to do that.
Oddly enough, my endocrinologist knows this and congratulates me for
giving up sugar and starch for the most part when she sees my blood
levels. :-)

Don't buy soft drinks or donuts, or bread.

To add to above, I wonder sometimes if it is from an over-indulgence of
alcohol and/or genetics.
I have chocolate practically every day (albeit dark) and have a glass of
wine or port, eat lots of bread and never think about whether I'm eating
carbs or starch and my trigl. are (almost) always below 100 -- in my younger
years, they were much higher, but I ate less fruits and veggies. - I just
looked and my last reading in July was 94.
