People desire to put things where you wouldn't expect them a lot. I grew up in southeast US and when my grandparents would visit (vegetarian their whole life cause Hindu) would visit it was a nightmare to go out because even things like collard greens would have pork added. Lard is/was a common thing to fry with as well. We all know McDs made fries in beef tallow originally, the switch to vegetable oil in 1990 was nice for them.
