Plenty of lard arses on here I'm sure so....

My vet has recommended lard for my cat to eat to help her skin/fur mowing issues.

Not the highly processed and bleached shite in the supermarket.

Popped down to a couple of butchers in London Rd and the Open Market and then in North Laine area but no luck.

Can you buy old fashioned lard anymore or do I need to buy and slaughter a pig myself?

Don't know but if your vet is recommending lard to cats, I'll have a prescription for whatever they are on.

Canhams on Church Road, Hove would be a good bet. I'd ring them first though

Buy some cheap pork belly and render your own

with the added bonus of some tasty pork belly for snacks.

Just buy a free range chicken. Roast it in a large pyrex. Pour off the juices and let them set in a bowl in the fridge. The white fat at the top is better than lard, and the jelly underneath is good in soups (for yourself).

I got a cub scout badge by going round Arkela's house and frying her an egg in her pan of lard.

And none of that, absolutely none, is a euphemism.

If you can hang on a couple of days I’d suggest you pay a visit to the Amex West Upper concourse on Sunday. You will find copious amounts of lard up there.

My local butcher sells me a ‘wodge’ of beef dripping. Makes for lovely roast potatoes.
