I am with you Nancy. I am not a fan of eating fat. I will eat fatty
bacon, but when there are huge wads of fat in it I tend to cut it off
and give it to the dog. Some people love it. I don't eat the layer of
fat around strip steaks, T bones, pork chops and lamb chops, and I will
trim off most of the fat on roast beef and pork. Some people love it.
