You can pour off the pork fat--which isn't as bad for plasma lipids as beef fat or even worse, butterfat--and replace the fat with a nice, neutral, high monounsaturate oil, while still allowing the fond to flavor the potatoes.. This morning I made fried potatoes. I didn't discard the bacon fat, but did add peanut oil. The moisture from the potatoes picked up the fond. If my family had cholesterol issues I would have poured off most of the bacon fat. To paraphrase the UNCF, a fond "is a terrible thing to waste."

Now. Let's try a real challenge. Anybody can make potatoes taste good with
bacon fond. Let's see you do it cholesterol free. While I enjoy your
cooking adventures and have great respect for your skill, my grandmothers
killed off at least half of the Deep South with that sort of concoction. I
DARE you. Polly

Why do you want them cholesterol free? You do know that the cholesterol you
eat doesn't affect your body's cholesterol. Right?

Bacon is animal fat. Animal fat is bad for your waistline and bad for
your heart. My husband takes pills for his cholesterol. In his case,
he needs to keep his HDL low and his LDL and high. His HDL is okay,
but his LDL is still too low in spite of what he does right.

High cholesterol in food is usually associated with high levels of
saturated fat. Saturated fat is correlated with high blood cholesterol.
High blood cholesterol is correlated with heart problems.

"Yeah" to the first part, but your husband's HDL and LDL goals are
exactly backwards from mine (and everyone else I've heard of).

I have a healthy heart and great cholesterol and I eat bacon about
twice a week.

Okay, you can put it into _DLs then. His bad cholesterol is under
control, but he needs to raise his good cholesterol.

***Any butt horn knows that bacon is full of nitrates and heavy in
sodium and isn't good for you Chemo, so your actions are no surprise ~
we all know you have the "blinders on"...

So out of the blue, in a thread about bacon-fond fried potatoes, you ask an
unspecified person whether he or she has ever made migas or
southwestern-style matzo brei -- and you expect people to look at the "quote
tree" (which may or may not be visible, depending on how they're reading) to
figure out who you are asking, and how it's supposed to fit into the
discussion?

Who WERE you asking, and how DOES it fit into the discussion about
bacon-fond fried potatoes?
