Default Question on Fitday and bacon

So when I fry bacon I always fry my eggs or my veggies in the bacon grease. When fitday calculates the count for bacon do they take in to account the grease or do they assume it's being drained off. I did a search for bacon grease and nothing came up. Anyone know?
Thanks,

Susan

I'm pretty sure they count it as drained. They probably would be shocked that we fry in bacon grease and use it to season veggies like green beans and cooked greens--especially if you grew up in the South! I just count bacon grease as the same as lard. They would have the same fat content. Lard is rendered pork fat, just like the fat that is left from frying pork bacon.

Default Re: Question on Fitday and bacon

i did a search on that the other day, and it came up for me as "bacon grease, or meat drippings" i don't remember the exact words i used for my search. i just went and searched it again, and if you just search bacon on pg 2 of the list it shows bacon grease, or meat drippings. hope that helps.

Ok thanks guys. I didn't bother to look on the second page when I searched bacon I typed in bacon grease and nothing came up. Now I'll know what to look for.
Thanks again.

Default Re: Question on Fitday and bacon

I use the "bacon grease or meat drippings" selection.

I also use the "lard" selection when I don't use bacon grease (which is processed) but use fresh rendered pork fat.
