OMG I JUST read about this!! I'm going to have to start raising my own pigs, but I'm wondering what you can do to make them all bacon......3

Hmm... ship over 3000 sows to the slaughter house daily with our company... no shortage here so far!
Although... I have had a heck of a time finding bacon seeds to plant....3 -

I was planning on bacon and eggs for breakfast and there's no bacon in the house! I think someone stole mine.2

Good thing my parents bought a whole pig last month from my Aunt (farmer) and stocked my freezer with a *kitten* ton of bacon!1

Well here is the bacon that you can make out of a pig
Bacon(from the bellies)
Cottage bacon(from the shoulders)
Canadian bacon(from the loins)
Jowl bacon(from the jowl(disgusting imho))
I certainly don't work at a butcher shop:)1 -

I'll share my vegetarian Baco's with y'all cuz I'm nice like that:).
They taste like bacon but it's like chewing on little tiny pebbles.0 -
As long as there's no Turkey bacon shortage... I'll be ok. It's not the same, but it will allow me to survive.0

Step one: cure entire pig in brine
Step two: Smoke entire pig in smoke house
End result: Pig Shaped Bacon1 -
What about cauliflower bacon?

Phew, that was a close one! I thought the sky was actually falling for a minute there.
