    I haven't seen Big Bang theory finale yet!!!! :( And I have to confess I don't know what all the hype about bacon is *runs and hides*

    Allow me to explain. Bacon has always been delicious. When I was very little, my grandmother cooked a whole package of bacon and I ate the whole package in about 5 minutes. Over the last few years, bacon has become somewhat overexposed. Now that it is understood and marketed that bacon is delicious by the general public, being obsessed with bacon has become a bit cliché. Someday, I foresee there may be even a bit of a backlash against people who enjoy bacon a lot and they might even become outcasts. I'm sure the WHO will come out with new guidelines explaining how bacon will kill your father and rape your mother. I will, however, continue to eat bacon. My grandmother is still alive. I may visit her soon and eat all of her bacon. Hope that clears it up for you.

    ... or on a more simple note, berlynnwall said their friend used to make them call ham Canadian Bacon and long story short I got confused about what the difference was between Canadian Bacon, American Bacon and English Bacon, with streaky bacon thrown in for good measure. Which then led onto pictures of bacon (for teaching purposes), and then it turned into people teasing me with bacon, and finally we arrive back here. :smile:

    Edit: and I still don't have any bacon.

    Success! Thanks, @Lois_1989!

    My tummy actually grumbled when I saw the animated one. I went to the gym at lunch and I'm still hungry.

    Edit: after posting this message two of them were on my screen! Noooo! :weary:

    Call me a dirty hippie, but pigs are wayyyy too intelligent for me to feel good about eating them.

    Wellshire Uncured Turkey Bacon does the job nicely.

    I'm one of the weirdos that doesn't like the taste of pig at all. I can choke down bacon/sausage, but I prefer the turkey variety. I do like ribs on occasion, but only once in a very blue moon.

    A few pages back I wrote about my large unhealthy co-worker that has been sick all week, sitting over there hacking & coughing, pumping germs into the air, and refusing to stay home when we have tons of sick leave available.

    So, worst fears realized, I woke up this morning with a sore throat & headache. Started coughing.

    P*ssed, I walk into work...and WHAT DO YOU KNOW, she called in sick today...on a Friday.

    Guess who is her back up?

    So now I'm sick on a Friday, getting an average of 5 emails a minute between both of our emails.

    %$^& ^*&#$(@#& $% $@#(*&^ %(^&%#

    Ooooh that devious wench! All orchestrated...

    My best friend in high school was Canadian, and she used to get really mad at me aboot saying "Canadian Bacon" instead of ham. She also tried to make me eat ketchup chips. This has been a brief message about what I know about Canadian food.

    haha. You don't have ketchup chips?

    Aboot! Ha!

    Don't want to seem dense, but do Canadians not call it Canadian Bacon?

    No, we call it ham.

    Unless it's peameal bacon

    eta: may also be known as back bacon

    I do not like peameal bacon. Is my Canadian card going to be revoked?

    Confession...I eat under 800 calories a day usually to lose weight. :hushed:

    Please eat. You aren't doing yourself any favors by not fueling your body.
    This is dangerous, and you should definitely seek help.

    One thing that helped me was being told that you would never expect your car to run without proper fuel, why would you expect your body to run without proper fuel (aka food). Make healthy choices, and make sure you're eating enough to fuel yourself :smile:

    I just got a veggie wrap with BACON for lunch! Sorry! I couldn't resist!

    @asflatasapancake - I agree that it will probably become one of those demonized food.

    I can't watch The Big Bang Theory. I actually geek out about things, and their geeking out is totally scripted and not funny for me.

    I enjoy it for seeing how many of the references I get, especially when I know that lesser geeks do not. My future MIL regularly has to ask us for explanations about things, but she swears she loves the show.

    The fact that Canada actually has products other countries don't blows my mind.

    I can't watch it... Sheldon reminds me too much of an old friend that I had a falling out with. I just get irrationally angry whenever I see even a commercial of BBT. Being regularly put down and condescended to for that many years apparently left me with some trauma.

    I've never been in Canada (I live near Chicago)... We were supposed to go to Niagara Falls this month, but canceled it due to family issues. I was mostly excited because I've interacted with so many Canadians on this thread!

    If there are any type of chips in the house I will easily eat the whole bag. I am no longer aloud to buy them, and if my boyfriend does he isn't aloud to tell me. Same goes for french fries :(

    The only one I'm aware of is Dyna Whey protein, lol. (Which is really too bad as it's totally awesome protein IMO)

    And I'm certainly not going to revoke your Canadian card over peameal bacon, especially considering I don't eat pig.

    Okay, caught up, finally!

    1. You can watch the full episode of Big Bang Theory on the CBS website- that's what I did, since I missed it last night because wine bar with the girls after a bike ride!

    2. Instead of saving the .gif image to your computer, you can just save the image link (right click on gif, click "copy image location") and put in the box that says "Image URL"

    3. My husband dislikes the taste of pork so much, he tells people he is Jewish. (I LOVE BACON, and no, turkey bacon DOES NOT taste anything like real bacon!)
