POLL: Give one up for life

Went with beer, but I'm assuming other adult beverages are still in play.

Easy choice for me. I'm not much of a beer drinker.

You'd have to rip the bacon from my cold, dead fingers.

And I would be okay with giving up bacon. I love it, but I never find myself missing it when I haven't had it for a while.

Take away cheese and/or beer? You might as well denut me, as well.

Cheese. I really like good cheese, but most of the stuff that's piled on food I could do without. Plus, I always feel better when I limit dairy, I feel irritable without beer and bacon.

Beer is the healthiest. I like pizza. I agree on the bacon part. I love it, but rarely crave it. Plus, about half the bacon I encounter isn't cooked right. Which makes it borderline gross.





I miss you already, bacon.

I can give up bacon and go with sausage.

Bacon makes nearly everything better. But it's mainly the smell. If you could get that smell into a safe substitute, I'd be fine with that.

At my weight and age I've had to cut back on both bacon and cheese.

Following a tip from the Dukan Diet, I now think of bacon mainly as a condiment. A sprinkle of bacon bits goes a pretty long way.

What is cooked right?

What is cooked right?

Thoroughly well-done but still chewy, not crisp. Easier to achieve with thick-sliced bacon.

Tough call, but ultimately bacon will kill you.

Beer & cheese are healthy.

And beer-cheese soup is downright delicious.

This. No way I could give up beer. And cheese would eliminate most Italian and Mexican dishes so F that. I love bacon but I don't consume it as much as the other two.

Right. Didn't say anything about sausage. Or brats. Or kielbasa.

All of which are excellent with cheese & beer.

Yup. I have bacon maybe on a pizza a couple times a year. Maybe a couple times a year on a sandwich. Maybe every year or two I will have a side of bacon. Love the idea of it but don't see the need to add it to everything.

Pretty much this, for my taste. When it's thin bacon and undercooked, it's not the same for me.

There are a lot of substitutes for beer, and I actually prefer wine and mixed drinks to it, so it's an easy choice for me.

Pretty much a matter of personal taste.

I could give up all three. I rarely drink now and I prefer turkey bacon.
