Once upon a time, fat was supposed to be bad for us. Today, not so much. Carbs are the new culprit. Which means we can once again enjoy schmaltz, which has fewer trans fats and more omega-3 fatty acids than a lot of vegetable oils.

People on paleo diets have downright embraced schmaltz. Yup. Those paleo people love animal fats and see them as healthier than any other kind of fat. But the very best news is now that we can eat schmaltz again, we’ll never have to put up with chopped liver made with *shudder* mayonnaise, ever again.
