    Not only do I fry the eggs in the bacon grease, I'll through some bread in afterwards to soak up whats left and get crunchy and delicious.

    Fried bread FTW.

    if you're worried, try turkey bacon. I think it tastes even better, personally!!

    Should I stop with the bacon?

    No. Never stop with the bacon and no bacon shaming. Bacon = good. Life without bacon is not worth living.

    QFT!!!

    Have you tried frying mushrooms in the bacon fat? Its my most favouritest flavour ever :) if I do eggs as well it is yummy, but the eggs go a little bit grey coloured, but still highly delicious.

    Don't let anyone make you feel you should give up bacon!!

    Regular bacon only has .5g more total fat and .5g more sat fat than turkey bacon, per serving (Oscar Mayer brand) - I dont see a real health benefit there. But liking it more is a pretty key aspect of the decision ...

    ETA: when I make an omelet, I fry up the onions and mushrooms for the filling in the bacon grease ...

    OMG terrible idea!

    Instead, use the bacon fat to fry hash browns, and then use butter to fry eggs. This way there's no waste, and you add the all-important butter and potato macros.

    ETA: And don't forget to top the eggs with cheddar and Tapatio.

    I don't even think turkey bacon should be classified as bacon. They should have to call it turkey strips or something.
