Alex,
My grandfather died at 87 in his sleep and was strong and bright right up to that evening. He ate what he called "sowbelly" , salt pork, every day with bisuits and gravy. It's not what you eat as much as it is how you live your life.
I'm guessing here, but I bet you don't like guns either. Like a typical liberal goofball, it's not enough that you don't like something. You expect everyone else to adopt your goofball ideology.
God bless bacon, and God bless Texas.

Mulerancher
I am only guessing that you were replying to me with that comment. Is so, here is an answer: My grandfather beat yours, he died at 93, noone knows what the hell he was eating every day, or even if he ate at all, my father is pushing 82 this year and feels fine, and I am a wreck at 41.
I Love guns. I target practice on hunters every day. And as far as my ideology goes, I am an extreme vegan. Meaning that I do not eat anything alive. (Including plants) I have a steady diet of rain water (tap water has microorganisms) and shifted sand. I have been following this diet for the best part of last week and feel alive again. I have also been following a steady intake/outtake of humour for my whole life and feel even better. If you didn't get that it was a humourous comment, then there's something wrong with your sense of humour. And I don;t believe that.
All in all, I love Bacon as anyone on this page, I just avoid it, cause I can NEVER stop once i start eating!!!
(can you make mule bacon? Horse meat is good. What about horse or mule bacon?)

Best form of suicide.... eating 4 lbs of bacon in one sitting.

I micro-wave on a [mv / safe dish ] covered by a napkin
to stop grease splatter. Depending on your particular
oven start at 30 seconds and adjust length from there.
To save time and $ I use Walmart thin sliced already
cooked smoked in those 2.1 oz packages. It does taste
OK with a couple eggs or on a B L T -- It's fast and
leaves not a lot to clean up. ................ Enjoy..... Roger

I am surprise there is no "how to microwave bacon" instructable. To me, it remain the best way of cooking bacon, but well, to each his way!

Apr 11, 2011. 7:47 AMJohnCrane says:

Is there a way to nuke bacon to crispy deliciousness? We always bake bacon in my household. Found out we liked the outcome a lot better than frying.
Please, post said 'ible on bacoNuking. I'd appreciate it.

Apr 11, 2011. 5:23 AMjohnparker says:

I agree...Nuking the bacon is the only way it is cooked at my house.

I remember Volunteering a few years back and we where donated
some Non-Meat burger type patties....We where also donated some
thick cut Apple-Hickory Bacon, Everything is better with Bacon!

Bacon is the true food of the gods! Those who oppose it are the minions of those greedy gods who want all the bacon for themselves! Don't be fooled by the anti-bacon lackeys! They lie!!!!!

Bacon was given to humans to add more fat and cholesterol to their already tired and overweight bodies. Bacon is invented by the devil himself. Bacon eating sends you straight to hell. Repent people. Do not touch this stuff. It makes you weak. Snap out of it. Stay clean. International Freemasonry pulls the strings of bacon consuming.
Vegan yourselves.

BLASPHEMY! If you could see how skinny as hell my family are, you would have a different opinion. We eat a lot of bacon

Apr 10, 2011. 1:17 PMalexmach2000 says:

I quote you: BLASPHEMY. You are talking of Blasphemy, when in the same sentence you write that your family is as skinny as hell. yes! HELL! No Sir. I am not blasphemizing. You are as blasphemeous as Hell though and your comment proves it. Stop Blasphmezorizing and cook yourself some virgin's hearts with puppies livers with bacon now. Bacon Worshiper!

How exactly did the devil invent bacon? Cite your source.

Apr 10, 2011. 1:21 PMalexmach2000 says:

My source is a young boy, apparently the Devil Himself told him so, when he went down in Georgia cause he was looking for a soul to steal....

LOL, I love that song - in fact, I had that song in mind when I commented about bacon.

Apr 11, 2011. 1:01 AMalexmach2000 says:

See? It all falls to pieces. Or even better it all falls apart, as the great Devil's plot is slowly revealed! REPENT. EAT LETTUCE OR YOU WILL BURN IN HELL!

Apr 11, 2011. 6:41 AMRowen27 says:

on beer as well as bacon i tend to side with Benjamin Franklin, It is a sign from god that he loves us and wants us to be happy!

Apr 11, 2011. 7:08 AMalexmach2000 says:

Don't get me started on Mayo now!!!! Ok you go on and eat all that and burn in Hell forever, eating bacon and high cholesterol meats, and everything till kingdom come.
Meanwhile I will be looking down on your endless torment enjoying me seeds and rainwater. Yummy!
Sinner...

you will burn in hell....

probably...

Apr 11, 2011. 10:49 AMRowen27 says:

ok, if this pops up twice I apologize... Anyway

That's entirely likely as I have been known to deep fry bacon ( a hell worthy sin, if ever there was one). It goes from frozen brick to crispy and delicious in about 10 minutes and that time includes letting the deep fryer heat up.

MMMMMmmmm bacon!!!

Somebody show me how to make bacon roses....the only kind of flowers that I would REALLY love to get.

Apr 10, 2011. 7:55 AMjdjonesdr says:

Nope.. I'm not going to do it. I'm not going to look at more ways to eat bacon. Enough is enough.

Besides, there's only 23 recipes.

Did I tell you that where I live, they make bacon so thick,, there is only 4-5 slices in a pound!

Great stuff.
