This is why restaurant food tastes so good. Fat is flavor. But beware, restaurants don’t give a shit about your cholesterol. They want you to have good food that you want to come back for. They’ll give you butter and grease all day long. You can cook tasty food at home that won’t clog your heart, but it takes a lot to meet the flavor standards of bacon or butter using poultry or vegetable oil. The trick is moderation. Not every meal needs to be a greasy bacon cheeseburger, but you don’t have to completely boycott that either.
