My Mom and Grandparents used to pour hot bacon grease over leaf lettuce and green onions all the time when I was a kid. Throw in a piece of cornbread and it as good eating. Sometimes I still get a craving for it. When I do I skip the bacon grease and make a vinaigrette I heat up and use on the lettuce/green onions instead. I always used to add a little vinegar to my bacon grease when I had mine before and now Im an olive oil fan.
Until June last year I had a huge pet rabbit. Lettuce past its prime was never an issue when he was around lol.
