Happy Birthday Crisco.

Former US Attorney General John Ashcroft was often called “The Crisco Kid”.

[u]San Francisco Chronicle article from 2002[/u]:

Among his colleagues he was still a little strange – a guy who had his father anoint him with cooking oil from the kitchen before taking office. Cynics dubbed him “The Crisco Kid.”

OMFG! :laughing:

geesh - couldn’t it have been the “Mazola” kids instead???

SHORTENING??? Whatever happened to good old fashioned Lard?

(And SPAM, too, for that matter)

Enquiring minds need to know. :slight_smile:
