WHY ARE YOU SO EXPENSIVE?
I used to be able to get you for $2.99/lb for the store brand kind. It was madness.
Now you're close to $7/lb. I can get you for $5/lb tomorrow, but still...
What makes you so expensive?!

    Because we want it so much!! I think it's a supply and demand thing. Speaking of bacon....I've got some in ma fridge. And ya... $7 worth isn't enough :sad:

    I'm regretting not filling my freezer with bacon when I could get it for less than $3 a pound. I should have just dropped $50 at the store, and had bacon for the rest of the year. :(

    People just love putting salty meat in their mouth. Mouthgasms galore.

    I remember reading somewhere that there was something that killed off a bunch of young pigs. Supply is down so price went up.

    Every time I see a picture of bacon I inexplicably here Kenny G music playing... I'm not even kidding. Every. Single. Time...

    I get it directly from a pig farmer and it's always slightly cheaper at the farmer's market....
