Thread: Shortening Powder

  1. #1

    Default Shortening Powder

    I ran into shortening powder in No. 10 cans advertised for longer term storage. I would appreciate hearing from anyone that has experience with this product. Thanks.

    That's kind of interesting.......That would certainly extend shelf life.
    Nice find.
