Unlike many “real food” bloggers, I am not an affiliate of Tropical Traditions.  So, giving you this information brings me no monetary benefit.  However, the deal is too good not to share with you.

I do not use vegetable shortening (like Crisco).  For a long time, I would buy “organic, non-hydrogenated vegetable shortening” for an incredibly expensive amount — like $13 for 24 ounces.  But, it’s how I make my Buttercream Frosting.  Also, some cookie recipes don’t taste good with coconut oil substituting for the shortening (peanut butter cookies come immediately to mind).  So, I kept some on hand despite the cost.

Well, looking at the ingredients of the organic vegetable shortening, I discovered that all it is is palm shortening.  I knew from ordering coconut oil that Tropical Traditions sells organic palm shortening.  A gallon is typically $40.75 — which is still cheaper than $13 for 24 ounces.

I’m out so I went on their site last night to order a gallon.  I discovered that until Sunday, May 13th, a gallon of palm shortening is just $23.59.

This is seriously too good of a deal not to take advantage.

If you click the picture it will take you to the page with the shortening, and that includes a picture of the nutrition label.  It’s likely that there are other great deals going on during this sale — it might be worth your time browsing around and seeing what other really healthy oils you can buy.  My time is limited this week, so I won’t be able to do that.  I just wanted to give you a head’s up about the sale.

Hallee
