Well, not when it's sitting in front of me. I don't eat bacon on a regular basis, when I indulge I definitely make the most of it.0 -
~ I eat Peanut Butter because ... I LOVE IT ! The " Protein " is just a bonus ! ~0

There's already a hundred posts in here, so I'm sure someone has already pointed out the difference between a ton of heavy, saturated fat versus a good helping of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fat? And how one of those fats while needed by the body in some amount, stimulates your insulin response, but the other type actually speeds up your metabolism and is rarely stored as fat by the body?
I eat bacon. Love bacon. Bacon on anything makes it better. Bacon bits. Bacon burgers. Bacon wrapped hot dogs. Bacon cologne. Bacon bras.
Best let's not convince ourselves that bacon is health food. Some is cool, but a lot of it and you will pay for it. On the other hand, I've seen dguys that have built massive physiques with peanut butter as their main staple. Now, these are mostly guys in prison but hey, whatever works, right?
Joking aside, look up the difference between types of fat and the effect on your body.0 -
Bacon sucks.
Peanut Butter FTW. :bigsmile:0 -
Any sentence the begins "Bacon is better than _________________" is automatically true.
Thanks for the laugh. Hilarious.0 -
That is just like any food if you don't look at the back to see what is in them Regular Peanut butter VS Natural Peanut butter or Regular Bacon VS Turkey Bacon..
With all the complete nutrional information including soudium and cholestrol and sugar and so on. Sometimes the orginal is better then the all nautrual same with the bacon sometimes the regular is better It all depends on a person taste. Just like real or powder peanutbutter if I had to choose I would choose reall ever time more calories but which is better in the long run.. powder.. It is just what your personal taste leans towards.0 -
I like both bacon and peanut butter. PB is a great vegetarian protein. It's also got a lot of nutrients in it that things like bacon don't. I'll take the fat in peanut butter over the fat in bacon any day.
BACON = Saturated fats
is related to a variety of health problems. Researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health found in 2010 that eating processed meats such as bacon, preserved by smoking, curing or salting, or with the addition of chemical preservatives, was associated with an increased risk of both heart disease and diabetes. The same association was not found for unprocessed meat.
PEANUTBUTTER = mono- and polyunsaturated fats,
consumption of peanut butter can contribute to improving cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of disease. peanut butter is packed with hard-to-get nutrients such as phosphorus, potassium, zinc, folate, and the antioxidant vitamin E. Even phytochemicals – specifically, resveratrol0 -

as if peanut butter isn't good for you. what a load of bull.
have you looked at the amount of poly and monounsaturated fat is in it? do you know what health benefits that has?
also bacon has a lot of sodium. do you know what a lot of sodium can do to you?
people can eat whatever the hell they want. it doesn't have to be the best thing for them. I'll use my calories for whatever I want and I don't care how much calories PB has, I'll factor it into my goals.0 -
How many calories are from fat?
10 calorie difference and the same fat is NOT a convincing argument since PB has good fat and bacon has bad fat.
The "calories from fat" thing is just dumb. It's simple math in fact. There are 4 calories per gram of protein or carbs, and 6 calories per gram of fat. So in both cases, 16g of fat = 96 "calories from fat", whatever anyone thinks that means.
Whoever decided to put that on labels thought we were too stupid to multiply a number by 6.0 -

Or...9. There are about 9 calories per gram of fat.0 -
I wish people would realize that there are good and bad fats, and good and bad cholesterol, and good and bad whatever the heck. Learning this, and being aware of the difference = more important than cutting something out of your life because "ZOMG SO MUCH FATZ."0

You... you are simply my favorite.0 -
I also like both, even tried a bqacon/pb sandwich on a dare, now THAT was gross
I think it's a fantastic combo. One of my faves!0 -
I won't say anything cruel about people who thinks bacon is better than peanutbutter. But peanutbutter is a healthy fat! I was always thinking that peanubutter had only bad fats and could make you gain weight, but i was soo wrong. I felt a little jump in mt weight loss when I switched all bad carbs w/ healthy fats. And bacon.....hmm, I find it very oily. But I don't have anything against people who likes it. I'm flexitarian anyway so I rarely eat meat/fish/chicken etc.0
