Haha. When I was little, I named the pigs at my cousins. When we’d return to visit, I’d inquire about the pigs.
I don’t remember the answers I was given, but as I grew up, I realized that the only animals that were the same were the dogs, cats and the 20 year old mule.
Steak and eggs is my favorite. The steak juices run and get into those eggs, and mop it all up with some sort of breakfast bread. Mmmmmm Mm!
I don’t get the steak for breakfast thing. Sounds like a cheap diner or Mad Men thing.
It's a common way for murderers to dispose of human bodies. Throw that dude out in the hog pen. He'll be gone by morning.
I don’t know about they but there are some horrific stories of farmers being eaten alive.
I use 1 pound of bacon for one BLT. Yeah I love it. 2 inches thick.
Consult with your cardiologist before attempting this recipe.
Bacon is a taste amplifier. As a stand alone food it’s excellent, but it’s truly great crumbled into or on top of another food.
Sausage can do that, too.
I love me some sausage gravy on biscuits, but I don't think I've ever had bacon gravy.....
How is that oddly specific? I was replying to a guy who said pigs would eat you if given the chance. He's right.
Love me some bacon.
Within the last year I have been baking it vs pan fry and honestly it’s so much easier and cleaner and tastes pretty much same

Salt, fat, and sugar: when it hits the tongue, it has the same effect on your brain as cocaine.
Bacon has at least 2 of the 3 mentioned.
Bacon does not have sugar in its natural unprocessed form (pork belly). However, a lot of companies add sugar to the brine used in the manufacturing or curing process. Sugar is typically added in small amounts and may not be reflected in the nutritional information, but it will be listed as an ingredient.

And I thought I used a lot of bacon on my BLT. You rock.
Speaking of bacon, I just got back from a cruise on a Carnival ship. You used to be able to load up the bacon on the breakfast buffet. Now, they have an attendant doling out two pieces at a time (everything else is self-serve).
My Jewish (no pic) wife and all 3 Jewish sons love it, plus my Jewish in-laws.
When I first went vegan, bacon and cheese were the hardest foods to give up. 6 years later, the smell of bacon cooking disgusts me.
Well, this makes that scene at the beginning of the Wizard of Oz a little awkward.
