 I started to melt down my Lasater suet and noticed it is very yellow. IF
 this is pasture fed, which Lasater is supposed to be, wouldn't it be whiter?
 I notice that the grain fed suet is very white......I'm wondering if maybe
 these pasture fed cows may have been eating yellow flowers out in the
 pasture? I'm kind of worried as the chickens at  Whole Foods which are fed a
 completely "vegetarian" (un-natural) diet have this yellowy fat? Does anyone
 know why??? a pasture fed cow would have such yellow fat?

 I have seen game fat that is very white and almost thin/runny in texture,
 not thick and chalky and yellow like this, but then again, I have never seen
 kidney suet from game.....so maybe it is denser. Has anyone seen game and/or
 pasture fed beef kidney suet??? >>
I used to attend quite a few necropsies and noteiced sometimes the fat was
very yellow but I was unable to correlate this with anything although I
initially thought the yellow was yellower in those with cancer.....these were
presumably all victims of the SAD, regardless of the specific cause of death.
