I have plenty of room for fat bombs though I don't make/eat them (often) since I like the sweet ones and would over eat them. My favorite was just like eating an Almond Joy. In fact that's what it is called. Almond Joy Fat Bomb: coconut oil, coconut, sliced almonds, 100% cocoa and stevia. Has some nutrients in it.
Here's why I have room:
I often eat fish which is not generally fatty, so need fats.
I prefer lean meats to fatty meats, so need fats.
I really don't like chicken skin, so need fats.
I honestly don't eat much bacon or sausage, so need fats.
I'm not a big cheese eater, so need fats.
I'm not a fan of butter on vegetables, so need fat. I like cabbage with butter.
I usually cook my eggs in the microwave without fats, so need fats.
I love salads but don't like to douse them heavily in dressing, so need fats.
I eat about 1500 calories per day and average about 100 grams of fat, 100 grams of protein and 50 total carb grams. In lieu of not eating fat bombs, I eat seeds, nuts, coconut, avocado, my preferred cheeses of cream cheese, blue cheese, feta cheese, parmesean cheese (the latter 3 on a salad). Whatever works and is sustainable.
If fat bombs keep folks on track and help them lose weight/reduce hunger/reduce cravings...I say go for it and find a way to fit them in!
The bolded part of this above is my favorite takeaway from this post!!My butt is my fat bomb ATM. But once I'm in maintenance...you bet your sweet bippy I'm gonna make fat bombs.

I just don't think our great grandparents were eating fat bombs. Isn't that what we are trying to get back to?
I have about 10 pounds of fat bombs around my waist and on my butt and thighs.6 -

I don't have exact amounts, but for a savory fat bomb, soften full fat cream cheese, stir in chopped green olives and a splash of Worcestershire. Add hot sauce if you like. Chill and roll into balls. Toast almonds and chop finely. Roll the olive balls in toasted almonds.3
