Marshal; do you honestly believe that whale oil was used.

StewieS;

Whale oil has low viscosity (lower than olive oil),[4] is clear, and varies in color from a bright honey yellow to a dark brown, according to the condition of the blubber from which it has been extracted and the refinement through which it went. It has a strong fishy odor. When hydrogenated, it turns solid and white and loses its unpleasant taste and odor.[5][6] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whale_oil
