...move, which affects such items as Kellogg's Cracklin' Oat Bran cereal, Keebler's Soft Batch cookies, Pepperidge Farm's Goldfish crackers and Sunshine's Hydrox cookies, is prompted by health considerations -- and rising consumer pressure. Manufacturers have long been partial to the balmy-sounding vegetable oils -- coconut, palm-kernel and palm -- mainly because they impart a nongreasy taste and texture and extend the shelf life of products. But they are also high in saturated fat, the prime booster of blood-cholesterol levels. Coconut oil contains 92% saturated fat, palm-kernel oil 86% and palm oil 51%. In comparison...

...eggs, red-eye gravy, biscuits, grits, deer sausage, fried catfish, cornbread, buttermilk, waffles, French toast, hotcakes and heaps of fruit. In the afternoon the womenfolk gathered in the big kitchen to prepare scalloped oysters and smoked turkey, fried chicken and black-eyed peas (cooked 24 hours), pot roast and cracklin' bread. The men strolled outside with their cigars, their vests unbuttoned, and examined the flower beds, kicked the tires on the model T, or organized a game of "touch" with the youngsters. Later, firecrackers blazed in the night...
