/CK/ I dumpster dive a lot and recently found 2 bars of vegetable shortening >pic related
Is there anything worth doing with it, or is it just meme butter and should be tossed out? Baking recipies are looking kinda dumb and the other post i found online suggest frying chicken in it but that seems dumb.
I also picked out like 20lbs of potatoes so I could make some fries? Found a few kg of flour and few kg of premade pancake mix too...
WHAT TO DO WITH THIS MEME BUTTER???

You have already been provided with ideas to use it in, if baking looks "dumb" to you then your options are extremely limited. Calling it meme butter is nearly abhorrent.
I suggest making pie crust

How can you steal trash?
Chocolate chip cookies with shortening instead of butter are my favorite. Crunchier, better for dipping in milk.

Some store 'managers' will get pissed lol. but free eats bro's. i've had HUGe scores everything imaginable. for a while we were getting so much fruit that I bought a dehydrator and was dehydrating 24/7. had boxes and boxes of dehydrated food. gave some away, also travelled the country for 10 months eating it and other stuff haha

hmm, first good review of cooking. perhaps i will try. cooking bacon some day soon so maybe some bacon fat+shortening might be an interesting combo? I feel like I have a shit load of shortening though and wanna do something with it so that might just delay the usage

Make some puff pastry dough

I bet shortening has a good use for frying something. it's also used as a "flaky" fat in things like biscuits, shortbread and pastry dough. the downside is it doesn't have much flavor

The potatoes are a good find, but I'd toss the vegetable shortening. Trans fat. It's bad stuff.

Melt it in a bowl, mix ranch powder in it and use as a potato chip dip.
