Grease: The benifits they don't want you to know about.

As a blogger, one thing I feel very strongly about is using this medium as a tool to expose lies and half-truths most people have come to accept as gospel, and this evening I intend to do just that yet again. I recently saw a commercial that depicted a short-order chef cleaning grease off a grill at a restaurant while his supervisor looked on. In the end grease from the cooking surface gets all over the kitchen floor and the two gentlemen fall, are injured, and are presumably left for dead. Quite frankly this is one of the most absurd things I have ever seen in my entire life and is an outright exploitation of the ignorance of the human race. Common hamburger grease causing death? The more I turned this over in my head, however, I realized that most people actually do believe too much grease can kill you! Maybe not in the form of falling, but rather from various heart diseases and other medical issues. The truth of the matter is that grease has many vitamins and nutrients that are found in very few (or in some cases no) other foods. Grease also lubricates the digestive system much like a cars engine. Yes, it's true-grease, the very same household grease that many so-called "doctors" are blaming for mass murder, is actually our friend! Do you remember how they used to say wine was deadly in any dose, but then they came out with a study that said drinking a glass a day could actually prolong your life? There is a similar study relating to grease. A small but powerful group of doctors have published a study declaring what some of us have been practicing for years, drinking a glass of grease a day can give you a longer, more productive, happier, stress free, and pain free life! So raise your glasses everyone, and give a toast to good health!
