Lard v Butter

On Food Unwrapped last night, it was shown that lard is healthier than butter as long as it is produced from free range pigs. Lard contains 50% more vitamin D which is stored in the pig's body fat and more healthy fats than butter. In Germany, they eat far more lard than we do in this country.
