Bringing Back the Fat Cap – Restoring the Fat of the Land
By Stanley A. Fishman, Author of Tender Grassfed Meat

“Living off the fat of the land” used to mean living the good life. For most of history, eating fat was associated with wealth, luxury, the best food, robust good health, privilege and success.
