Loved the way this tasted. The little bit of sugar and cream added a big bunch of flavor. I'm confused as to the previous reviews. What bacon grease? I read the orignial recipe over and over and didn't see the use of bacon. I didn't use any.

My husband and I really liked this squash. the squash absorbed the flavor of the bacon grease with a hint of sweet. I also added the onion. I waited to add my salt because bacon drippings can be a little on the salty side. Thanks, Bullwinkle

I didn't have any bacon drippings so I used some breakfast sausage grease. I added the onion and I've glad I did, it added some extra flavor. This was a great way to eat yellow squash. I will be making this again for sure, excellent flavor.
