I am not sure about lard

Industrially-produced lard, including much of the lard sold in supermarkets, is rendered from a mixture of high and low quality fat sources from throughout the pig!.[8] It is typically hydrogenated (which produces trans fats as a by-product), and often treated with bleaching and deodorizing agents, emulsifiers, and antioxidants, such as BHT!.[4][9] Such treatment makes lard shelf stable!. (Untreated lard must be refrigerated or frozen to prevent rancidity!.)[10][11]
