    Whats the big deal about bacon anyways?

    yeah it tastes good for that one slice but I ain't gonna keep eating that crap when all my taste buds are covered in salt and fat. I would think common sense would kick in and say "hey this shit is probably bad for me" and its kinda overpowering the rest of my food and ruining it.

    Am I the only one in north american kinda scunnered by it?

    Because Men go crazy for bacon right? RIGHT?! Thats what the commercials tell us at least.

    OT: It's good, but at the end of the day it's just salty pork. This idea that we go batshit crazy over it was just something the media invented.

    I strongly dislike bacon but at least recognise that it's pretty weird.

    Not all bacon is overly salty.

    Bacon is actually very good for you in moderation as part of a complete diet. Everyone needs animal fat in their diet; pork fat is 80% mono-unsaturated, making it surprisingly good for you.

    Plus, it's so so so so so so good

    Bacon is the reason why pigs.

    Bacon is not food; It's a spice. An all-spice. You can use it with anything to make it instantly better. Try it with milk.

    It's even better with more bacon! PUT BACON ON THE BACON! AND PUT BACON ON THAT TOO!

    People who dislike bacon are alright as long as they like pizza. If you hate both then back to the other evil alternate universe with you!

    I HATE BACON.

    Oh goodness I said it I finally said it.

    I don't understand the hype about making bacon-flavored everything.

    Neither one is really "bad" for you though. I've had to crank my carb intake ever since I started training for duathlons and running races. People obsess too much over food when they should really just be getting off their fat asses.

    On top - bacon is fucking delicious. So is everything else made with pork belly.

    I'm not a big fan of breakfast sausage links. I love breakfast sausage, but I'd rather just have the ground stuff.

    Yeah but it's a lot harder to lose weight if you're eating a lot of carbs versus a lot of fat and salt.

    Pretty much. I like sausage, too, (links... patties are just meat discs), but prefer bacon, or require bacon IN ADDITION to sausage.

    Such an ironic statement. Look at America, dude. Do you think any large portion of our population has this piece of common sense(or any at all really)?
