Where might I get some kosher oinkpatina and vegan mock oinkpatina?

Thank you.

i would just slather pig fat on the entire surface.
let it soak in.

it is called `oinkpatina`.

cannot help myself.
there is the hard way, take it all up, and there
is the patina way.
my floors at the farm are pine, and i `oinkpatina` them
on a regular basis.

Hmmmm..... Oinkpatina won't work in kitchens with pork
dietary restrictions!-)
Perhaps Chicpatina could be a substitute ....
sounds like a schmaltzy idea to me.:-)

A practical solution, for sure. The idea of walking on a floor that had
"oinkpatina" wouldn't bother me, but food preparation on a counter saturated
with pig fat doesn't sound too healthy.

Good queestion, Tony...

Well, now-a-days, most environmentally concerned shoppers
would go for the 'Free Range, Organic' kinds of Oinkpatina,
as they are so much more wholesome, being raised on all that
'clover' and all, and being 'Pesticide-free' as well. No
harm is done to the Pigs either, as they rent time at night
in otherwise quiescent Liposuction clinics. Good for
'small-business' and for the environment. And it keeps the
Pigs 'lean' and frisky too!

But I think you can get the 'porcine-free' variety (Brand
name is 'Swine-Free' if memory serve, but they have the
'generics' too) at the Health-Food section of your local
Hardware Store...and likewise the Vegan-Mock-Oinkpatina
really Toe-foo juice with some Sea-Weed extract I think for
'thickenning'...) comes in them little 'cartons' like the
Rice beverages do. And don't forget to shake 'em up good now
before use, as they do 'settle' some. And mind that
'expiration' date too! as they can get a mite 'cultured' if
on that shelf too long...( be wary of the 'puffy' carton in
the 'SALE' basket...I learned that...the hard-way...oh-boy!
yeeeeeeek!)

Or, for the non-vegans, what about some o' dat good ol'
fashioned "Long-Pork" fat, as from them old time Hawiian or
Polynesian Bar-B-Ques? I don't think you can buy it, but one
could make their own easily enough, and have a nice Party
event at the same time! Rent some of those 'Tiki-Torches'
and so on...dust off that Ukelalee!
