What the heck is Crisco

[Oral Fixation]

Hey guys

May sound naive, but what the heck is Crisco? I've heard it quite a few times and seen it in some jokes, and am assuming it is some sort of fat/buttery substance, but what exactly is it and what is it made of?

Is it supposed to be a healthier alternative to butter/margarine?

 

[Swellegant]

It's vegetable shortening, a kind of grease. No healthier than butter or margarine, but it has little or no flavor so it's good for baking, it doesn't interfere with the food's flavor. Here's its website.

It's also used (or used to be used) as a sexual lubricant, much like Vaseline. It's especially efficacious for fisting, and is closely related to the practice in the gay mind. But it's not condom-safe, so it's fallen out of use somewhat for "regular" sex.

Tx a stack. At least now I really know what everyone is referring to.

After you fist with it, be sure to NOT use it in a cake or muffins...just a little cooking tip.

There is a party you can have using it. Was thought up by a friend of mine many many years ago. First clear out a large room of all furniture and cover the floor up to mid wall level with plastic sheeting. Invite all the people you have ever wanted to party with over. Outside the room have small cans of crisco stacked and a sign on the door stating admission is only allowed if clothing is totally removed and you smear yourself with the crisco. Once inside, everyone just grabs, wraps, hugs, etc while squeezing. Everyone should just slip and slide around each other.

Called a Happy Crisco Party. Tried it once and gosh is it sensual and fun! A bit of a mess cleaning up, showering took a while as the hot water heater took a while to recover, but still it was fun.

Was that original or butter flavored Crisco?

Probably Butter.

And remember, leaving the can on the back of the toilet or on your nightstand can prove to be rather awkward when having your bf's parents over for a dinner party.

Just a word to the wise and greasy.

I remember cracking-up watching those Loretta Lynn commercials when she said, "Crisco, it'll do you proud everytime!"

Actually, it was a bit more country and laid-back. "Crisco'll do you proud every time!"

(I have a VHS cassette of Annie Hall, circa 1979, and far better than the movie are the vintage commercials.)

 

[Críostóir]

There's actually a version with no trans fat and half the saturated fat. I bought a can this week (for cooking, you perverts).

And it's not safe with latex condoms, but is fine with polyurethane. These days, however, there are much better things available. Boy Butter, for example, which is oil-based (stays slippery indefinitely), but cleans up easily with water. Don't cook with it.

It also comes in a water-based, latex-safe version.

Don't ask me -- I left my Crisco in San Francisco....

God, I would love to sit in at a meeting of the Crisco marketing dept. when they discuss "expanding the franchise"!

Crisco was originally made by the food division of Procter and Gamble. It was sold, several years ago, along with another famous P&G brand, Jiff Peanut Butter, to JM Smucker Company, maker of Smucker's Jams, Jellies and preserves.

The J.M. Smucker Company (www.smuckers.com) was founded in 1897 when the Company’s namesake and founder sold his first product -- apple butter -- from the back of a horse-drawn wagon. Today, over a century later, the Company is the market leader in fruit spreads, peanut butter, shortening and oils, ice cream toppings, and health and natural foods beverages in North America under such icon brands as Smucker's®, Jif® and Crisco®.
In June 2004, the Company expanded its family of products to include such brands as Pillsbury® baking mixes and ready-to-spread frostings; Hungry Jack® pancake mixes, syrups and potato side dishes, and Martha White® baking mixes and ingredients in the US, along with Robin Hood® flour and baking mixes, and Bick’s® pickles and condiments in Canada. For over 107 years, The J.M. Smucker Company has been headquartered in Orrville, Ohio, and has been family run for four generations.
The J. M. Smucker Company was recognized as the top company in FORTUNE Magazine’s 2003 annual survey of The 100 Best Companies to Work For and has ranked consistently in the top 25 companies each year since FORTUNE began the list in 1998. The J.M. Smucker Company has over 4,500 employees worldwide and distributes products in more than 45 countries.

There was always Crisco at my house. My Mother fried with it. People in my area used to use lard, so Crisco was a healthy improvement. I still prefer my homemade biscuits made with hog's lard.

I don't think I've ever used Crisco as a sexual lubricant. I did use motor oil one time, but that's another story.

The original Astroglide and KY lol

 

[gefsmith]

LOL

I stayed in a leather/sm hotel in Amsterdam (The Black Tulip for those interested) where they had leather sheets --> very erotic to sleep under if you have never done that.
To get back on topic tho, they had a strict policy of no crisco as it's bloody annoying to get off leather and other bits and bobs in the room.


Never used it myself, but I am amazed at how much they charge at the sex shops compared to the supermarket! Hmm Sounds like a nice niche

What's crisco? Something i can't live without. There is the kind that comes in a plastic drum-like container and is either made from animal fats (NOT a good choice as it smells and i'm a vegetarian) and the kind made from vegetable oils. It also comes in a bottle in liquid form. The liquid form is okay, but the white kind in the jar is the best. I'm not into fisting, never have never will. But Crisco is a godsend for masturbation marathon addicts like me. Just take a tiny amout and rub your hand together, beating off with it will leave you breathless. Sometimes i like to spread some on my wet cock after a HOT shower, dry off and go about my day. It stays slick for a long time, so i can beat-off anytime, anywhere. It's also great for fucking myself with toys or whatever. Remember it's greasy and will be tough to get off, so cover sheets or furniture with something. The best part is that it's very cheap and lasts a long time, and buy the generic or store brand since the ingredients are the same as name brand Crisco. For a fun treat for your cock, melt some Crisco in the microwave until it's very warm to the touch, but not hot enough to burn skin. Lay back and apply the hot oil to your throbbing cock and balls and it will blow your mind. Crisco is also used by hospitals for dry skin, they call it cream C. Hands, feet, elbows....anywhere. I put a thick layer on my feet, put socks on, and go to bed. I've had guys ask me how my skin is so soft, and they are shocked when i tell them. Trust me, you can spend tons of money on mosturizers and never top Crisco. You can even use it as an eye cream at night to avoid wrinkles!

Crisco Party or Mazola Party................same........same kinda party! lol

Spread the clear plastic in a room where you've removed everything you do NOT mind getting greasy and grease everyone down with mazola/crisco when they enter the room (nakid)! You can also use extra cups of the stuff to further make ALL things slippery!!

Fun fun fun.........see what we did when I was growing up? ​

 

[mexamor]
