Two issues

can you tell me how much healthier vegetable oil is compared to dripping please??
I removed the link to the German Wikipedia, as it was obviously nonsense. I can't tell where it should link to, maybe de:Schmalz. It might help to know, how dripping compares to other fats. Maybe someone would like to work with this existing template: Template:Fatsandoils

I removed the interwiki's, since they all refered to a technique used in Action painting, and not to the animal fat this article is about. Hettie 17:48, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

It might be worth mentioning that Dripping was a staple food for miners in the north of England around the turn of last century. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.155.19.176 (talk) 09:05, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Other ways to eat Drippings

Anthony Bourdain eats this in bacon format on The Layover (London). This alternative way of serving it needs to be identified here, no? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snarfa (talk • contribs) 07:39, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It probably should be, yes, and perhaps Bourdain is a reliable enough source for it. I assume this is a TV program that we intend to use as the source itself? If so, how many of the details for this template can we find? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 12:48, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Definition

Dripping is animal fat, from any animal. It is not correct to say that dripping is "also known usually as beef dripping or, more rarely, as pork dripping". That is not logical or grammatically correct. I suggest instead saying that "dripping may be made from beef, or more rarely, pork".101.98.140.129 (talk) 21:58, 21 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
