    Flippin' amazingly, superty duperty, smack-your-momma-or-other-random-family-member-who-annoys-you goodness in cured meat form. I'll take my bacon in either streaky or meaty British versions.
    Totally this!!!! But I hardly cook it because my child hates it......one of my fav foods is Pasta Carbonara.... and I'll beat the hell outta somebody for a simple BLT.....

    Like 1/3 of my weight is leftover bacon. Yeah, it's super awesome, and no, I am not eating it any more. I've turned to the dark side and switched to turkey bacon or none at all. :brokenheart:

    **Gasps** you poor thing!

    My belief is that the food pyramid should have bacon at the top and bottom and a few random times in between

    Only if it's turkey bacon! Tastes much better and there's no nasty, chewy fat to pick off.

    Do you know what part of the turkey that bacon comes from? ...Exactly, nobody does.

    Pig bacon is better because it's real food, and it's also usually healthier than the imitation turkey stuff.

    Bacon is the anti-Christ of good nutrition. Of course, that's what makes it tasty.
    What? Low calorie, good protein, relatively low fat, what's not to love?
    1 oz of bacon has 151 calories, 3 % Saturated fat and 2% sodium and no nutritional value other than the 2-3 grams of protein and it does have nitrates. If you love salty greasy food so much that you don't mind high cholesterol, hypertension and carcinogens, go for it.

    You should try eggs fried in rendered bacon fat (lard) - YUM!! It might loosen you up a bit ;)

    theres nitrate free bacon if you care about that, and i buy low sodium. 90 calories for 2 slices and i eat it as often as possible :P if you cook it right, bacon isnt really greasy either.

    Meh. Even when I ate meat super fatty meat freaked me out. When I was a kid I would only eat bacon if the fat was completely burned off, extra crispy/black.
