That's not true. Poor folks are more likely to fry in cheap salad
oil, reused bacon greaze, lard and other rendered animal fats
(schmaltz). Most hydrolized vegetable oil (shortening) by far is used
by bakeries, and folks who use margerine... margerine IS shortening,
ie. flavored Crisco. Unless you do all your own baking every baked
product you eat contains generic Crisco.
