So, more red meat, lard, bacon fat, Jello salad with vegetables, cranberry sauce with orange rind and walnuts, and black coffee?

Don't forget the squirrel, and your comment was really light on the lard. Add lard 7 more times. Or was that just our hand me down handwritten cookbook?

Only if that jello is made from ground up marrow tho. Seaweed is looking super sus atm

Not seaweed in general, but "Processed eucheuma seaweed (thickener) (stabiliser) (gelling agent) emulsifier"

Black coffee is actually pretty good for you.
Lard has gotten a pretty bad rap, and is much better than what a lot of people think: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ROoGi6-Hdk

But yeah, probably want to cut down on red meat and jello. The rest of that salad sounds pretty good though.

Lime Jello, shredded carrots and cabbage, diced celery, and walnuts. Every holiday as a kid I was so stoked for Jello, but then ... Oh God, it was ruined. When it was served to me I tried sucking the Jello off the veggies and spit out the veggies strategically hiding them, but that celery flavor ruined everything.

Pretty much, perhaps with the exception of bacon fat. And I say this as someone who is mostly vegan. The point is that natural food ingredients > processed, mystery ingredients for health (as a general rule).
