I have had very good results from shortening and lard. Both are of a soft white creamy consistancy but they are also unused. I just made a 128L batch using 22 liters of methanol and 730 grams of KOH. After running through some puralite beads it looks like water. Have made probably over 500 gallons with no problems as of yet. A little trickier to deal with since its a solid, I use the good ole texas sun to melt it while still in the buckets.
