The cheapest, awfulest, worst-for-you, all-natural ingrediants,
such as beef fat, lard, and coconut oil. YUCK!

Note that the FDA says (capitalization added):

You can't make mellorine with all cream -- that would be
ADULTERATED mellorine! I presume this is because the
dairy industry doesn't want anybody to make mellorine
that's TOO GOOD! It would be tough competition against the
lower grades of ice cream.
