Perfect pie crust today includes lard, which has returned to glory after years of bad publicity
Fox News
Lard, essential to the human diet for centuries, suffered a wave of bad publicity in recent decades. It's enjoying a sudden rebirth, thanks in large part to pie makers.
"The main reason we use lard is because of the flakiness that it gives to our pie crust." Moderation remains the best advice, according to nutritionists. Kerry J. Byrne is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
Lard tragically fell from public favor during the Great War on Monounsaturated Fats in the 20th century.
