Bacon isn't "bad" because it's just one part of your diet. It's the totality of your diet that's either healthy or not. If I eat a wholesome balanced diet, and then I have a few slices of bacon with my breakfast and a Twinkie after lunch, the fat in the bacon and the sugar in the Twinkie isn't going to change the fact that I ate a wholesome balanced diet.
Any food that someone out there thinks of as "bad" can fit into a healthy diet in a reasonable portion. And any food that someone out there thinks of as "good" can cause problems if you eat too much.6 -
The only foods that are bad for me as far as I know is burger meat (can eat steak fine) & if I eat something with a lot of peppers (both give me really bad stomach pain/gas).
Other than that & occasional discomfort from fast food greasy items I don't view any foods as good or bad.0 -

avocado. I was surprised how easily avocado fits into my calorie goals0

Bacon is another one. Bacon gets a bad rap but in actuality a couple slices is very manageable and satisfying0
