During the development of Mortal Kombat, one of the game designers suggested that Dan use it in the game. Toasty is also the name of Scorpion's most famous Fatality. In Mortal Kombat II, a specialized Toasty Fatality can make Dan Forden say Toasty! after the Fatality with a text appearing that reads Toasty!.
Lard is animal (pig) fat, and shortening is vegetable fat. Lard is not used much anymore because it is very high in saturated fat. It is great for pie crust--makes a very flaky crust. I don't think I would use it for icing--it can have a distinct flavor of its own.
The word 'lard' itself is not a bad word.    There are some people who use it to insult others, so actually it's  the intent of those people to insult and hurt others â¦ that is bad,  not the word.   Lard is a solid shortening made from pork fat; what you have left  in the pan after cooking bacon.ard is basically pig fat and was often used in many foods as a cooking fat or as a spread similar to butter. Its use in modern cuisine has diminished because of health concer â¦ ns posed by its saturated fat content.
