Fat Rankings

[Squall]

Can i trouble some of the veteran RPD'ers here to post a ranking of which fats they consider the best? Something like:

1. Brains
2. Hide fat
3. Suet
4. etc.

I'm really just looking for opinions and not necessarily hard science.

This assumes that the organs all come from 100% grassfed sources - for example, I used to get a source of grainfed brains from pigs(cattle brains are forbidden in the UK for sale). The following fats are listed in descending order from greatest to least, and I;m measuring them in terms of what other trace micronutrients they have, other than just fats:-

Brains
Marrow
Tongue
Hide-Fat
Muscle-Meat Fat
Suet
-------
(Optional)
Eggs
Dairy

Is Hide-Fat the fat just under the fur and muscle-meat fat the fat in the muscles?

On Friday I got over 1kg lamb brains; I have only had 3 up to now - I like them, but as a treat because it would have been a treat in paleo times too!

Now I will have to throw most out because I could never eat that many and "normal" people would not be interested in me giving them brains

I notice that brains have a lot of cholesterol which is calming...

I think so. People from the States enthuse about yellow  hide-fat all the time, but I don't seem to get hold of it, over here.
