Barry Groves makes a big point in his book of the perceived value of fat from sheep (from Biblical days) as being at the top of the desired to eat list. He also mentioned that "the fat of the land" is derivative of fat from sheep. Strange how, from childhood on, we are taught to believe that an apple a day, etc... It is a tough concept for many people that I have spoken with to throw aside. It has been so deeply ingrained in us and not something I am willing or able to argue with others about. It seems pretty clear though for the diabetic...
