I even went to the store one day not long ago and got the butcher to cut me some of the good pork fat so i could maybe taste more than the fisrt bit of pork grease LOL. Just one taste was good but that was like a banquet to me. No teeth but can gum it if Iraoll it up large enought to mash with my tongue and the roof of my mouth. Good luck with the treatments.
