That’s just a little TOO much for my taste. I have tried some of that. It was like eating a hunk of beef flavored butter. Didn’t like it.

Something about that photo turns my stomach a bit. IMO, there's a fine line between fat being flavor and just being grease.

I agree. I have only a very slight desire to try that. It's just too much fat for me.

smokenoob you are lucky you have not acquired a taste for this. Not only would it shorten your lifespan but it would likely empty your bank account as well. 😁

Modern Antarctic explorers, on foot, often rely on a stick of whole butter per day. Makes me gag to write this.
