In any post TU sitatution, lack of fats can make one very cold
let alone anything else.

It's long been recognised that storage of clarified butter (or Ghee)
cpould be very useful but it does tend to be expensive.

I came across this

at £17 odd for 2 kilos - its incredibly cheap.
Most Tescos have a 'foreign foods' section. The ghee there is really cheap!
you can get a lot of fats from your diet post shtf, you would have to rethink your diet, but foods like pork, chicken and milk have high fats.

Would be interesting to find out how much per pounds

It's usually about £7 - £9 per 500gms which makes around c£15 per kilo

Or make your own Ghee. It is only clarified Butter and very easy to do at home.

....but wouldn't it then have to be pressurised after?

Thank you RS a good find
Pretty sure it is a lot cheaper at local Indian subcontinent supermarket, I will make a not of the price next time I am in. I normally buy the smaller cans at the moment as it would take me an age to get through a large one.

As for fats at home, hot lard on sterilised jars that are closed up right away will keep as long as it is out of the light in does not get to warm.
