Julie, you wouldn't know what good food is/was as you "dined out" most of your life. Apparently your mother did not experiment much with cooking of any kind.

And yes I have a plastic container in the fridge of bacon grease that I never use. I have before, but I don't anymore most times.

All the time, as well as sausage fat and duck fat (labeled jars in the
fridge). I also save chicken fat as I use that to grease the bird
feeder pole to keep the squirrels out of it.

Use vaseline. It won't attract animals/insects like chicken fat will.

Vaseline may be damaging to the critters and I want them healthy. No
insect problems and the squirrels have fun licking their paws and
jumping on the pole for another try.

Leap, grab, slide, fat pumpf as butt hits ground, lick paws, then
repeat.

I must have marabunta ants from The Naked Jungle, nothing stops them,
Vaselene just makes them hornier for hummingbird nectar. I tie an old
terry washcloth to my hummingbird feeder pole and spray it with Raid,
but within a few days those unstopable marabunta build a bridge with
their bodies and get past the Raid.

I add kerosene to lamb fat to keep possums off poles, etc. Once they
get it on their paws, they hate it. Kero could be added to any type of
fat as a repellant.

Yup! I exand slightly. Some used canned, a few may have used frozen
and some fresh. The frozen and fresh with minimal edits work the same.
The canned ones are also better for bacon fat added.

I must be in the minority then because I like my sauteed green beans
tender crisp and I can't get that from canned or frozen.

There's always one small prep bowl in the fridge, and at least one in
the freezer.

Essential for sauteed green beans, IMO.

Most definitely, William. I put bacon grease in lots of vegetables -
especially squash and green beans. We use fatback to cook greens and
collards with.

I have a small container in the back of my refrigerator. I used to use it sometimes but I haven't used any in a long time.

It's probably fine still. Lots of uses for it. I'm perusing a bread
recipe right now that uses it to make a flat bread.
