Bacon appreciation thread

What would the world be like without bacon?

It would be a sad, sad place I tell you. Bacon makes the world go round.

Imagine wrapping yourself in bacon, then going into an Oprah show on dieting.

Bacon, like nakedness, enhances all situations.

I had a chicken Ceasar salad for lunch today, with bacon of course.

Bacon omelettes.

I vote for an omelette appreciation thread. As a derivation of this one. The world would definitely not be the same without omelettes. Particularly bacon omelettes.

God bless those Mexican cooks at the chef station and their chile relleno with omelettes. And their bacon. They do it RIGHT.

Wow...it must almost be October round here.

**Foggy_Goggles** · 09-30-2005, 12:19 PM

Or 4H bacon. Fresh from the bacon can't compare to fresh from the farm (says the guy who just picked up a 1/4 hog yesterday). By the way, I celebrate the whole pig, not just bacon.

BBQ
Chops
Sausage
Roasts
Loins

How can you go wrong?

I am a fan of the classic veggie burger with bacon. It is fantastic and the first time the server hears that they get all freaked out. Throw some cheese on there as well.

Go have some bacon... It'll feel like February, if for a moment.

my father used to raise pigs for fun...just so we could have a chest freezer filled entirely with out own farm raised pork products...we fed them on the highest grade feed and the extra veggies from the garden...

best damn pork ever....were talking around 300 pounds of meat in the freezer...

mmmmmm

scrapple

A friend of mine is all about turkey bacon, I just don't get it

I get it; your friend is a moron.

When I'm at my cottage, we always get bacon from a butcher in a small town a few minutes away. I could eat a couple pounds of it for breakfast.

Usually what I do on a summer weekend morning: get up, go waterskiing, eat bacon and then some beef jerky. I'm working on about my 8th heart attack right now.

I think you might be a little prejudiced on this topic- Billy.

I love bacon, however, pork roll makes a better breakfast sandwhich.

**spooge** · 09-30-2005, 12:31 PM

I knew someone once who knew Kevin Bacon.

I have always said that if I were stranded on a deserted island and could only eat one thing, it would be bacon.

Weird. I've always maintained that bacon (along with tea) is one thing you Yanks get catastrophically wrong. Those deep fried shards of saturated fat pictured above are heresy. Some proper Danish bacon that's succulent and meaty is the answer.
