      Well, first off I don't like the quotation marks around hot, I'm just gonna put that out there.....and second, how do you know I don't already have a zipper scar and this is why I am on MFP to begin with?

      because your chest is out in one of your pics and although it is a very nice view i dont think i miss the scar. :laugh:

      my fave cut of bacon is streaky bacon closely followed by middle bacon

      I am off to the supermarket tonight after work so need to get me some of that goodness . However I gotta admit I do try to get the free range bacon, not happy about eating bacon from the poor pigs who are kept in those awful stalls.

      No reason to give it up, just cut back.

      We've known your movies for so long
      We know they're lame but we're too shy to say it (say it)
      Each time we all just have to play along
      We know the drinking game and we've all had to play it

      Six degrees of Kevin Bacon
      Start at one actor, get to him in less than 6 tries

      so I'm gonna say Matthew Perry from Friends
      who was with Kevin Pollak in the movie Numb
      was in A Few Good Men with guess who?

      No matter how hard you try
      Never find an alibi
      Stars in Hollywood align with.....

      ooooooo, give you up....\m/

      I gave up bacon yesterday.

      My daughter really wanted some, so I grudgingly shared.

      90 calories of fat and cancer causing nitrates...


      i still eat it every so often but i buy the nitrate free kind and limit myself to two slices and never have it on burgers and sandwiches anymore

      Debbie Downer.

      Do you also drive a prius. Or ride a bicycle? I bed not....and i'm sure you gas guzzling is doing more harm to the earth that that cancer causing nitrates. Because I'm sure you don't dress head to toe everyday and lather on sunblock either to keep yourself away from the sun which emits RADIATION and causes skin cancer...go home debbie..go home.

      Bacon is only 90 calories per serving.

      My serving of bacon is significantly more than 90 kcals.

      Go look at the dosages of processed meats the WHO has found is correlated with cancer. It's best to keep this all in perspective.

      http://www.cancer.org/cancer/news/news/world-health-organization-says-processed-meat-causes-cancer

      "Twenty-two experts from 10 countries reviewed more than 800 studies to reach their conclusions. They found that eating 50 grams of processed meat every day increased the risk of colorectal cancer by 18%. That’s the equivalent of about 4 strips of bacon or 1 hot dog. For red meat, there was evidence of increased risk of colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancer.

      Overall, the lifetime risk of someone developing colon cancer is 5%. To put the numbers into perspective, the increased risk from eating the amount of processed meat in the study would raise average lifetime risk to almost 6%."

      If you go through the WHO reports carefully you'll find that pretty much everything "causes" cancer.

      For a fun run down of ways to die, take a look at this: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr64/nvsr64_02.pdf

      Hint: You're destined to die at some point.

      Honestly, burnt to a crisp bacon really ruined the whole thing for me.
