In response to thread subject: more please!

A buddy in the Army was deployed to Iraq for 13 months, he said that Bacon was his most missed thing.

  Almost off topic, but I ran across a burger recipe where you mix bacon grease in with the meat before you put it on the grill. Yum.

My grill runs on bacon fat/  ;D
Yup

What a great moment in time (still reeling from Sunday night)to re-birth the bacon thread.   I had some bacon just yesterday in my otherwise reasonably healthy foot-long turkey sandwich at Subway. 

As I said back in March, what is amazing about bacon is that it actually goes with almost anything.  To the surprise of many, bacon is being tried in combination these days with food items heretofore considered bacon prohibitive.  Never mind the now generally accepted staple peanut butter and bacon sandwich, bacon is being paired successfully with chocolate, all kinds of fruits, cheeses, cheesecake, ice cream, cupcakes and, of course,absolutely any kind of meat or seafood. Can you think of anything that goes as well with pancakes and syrup as it does with lettuce and tomato?

Try to find something bacon doesn't go with -- come on (as Robert Conrad once said), I dare ya.

50. Canadian bacon
Seriously, how is Canadian bacon even in the "bacon" family?

Canadians just call it ham...and regular bacon is just bacon. :D

there was a late article in Yahoo this days of how to bake perfect bacon
I miss it sadly

Last week We got some chicharrones, those are our national alternative to bacon. ( You can mix with eggs too)



mmm.. this makes me want a beer and chicharron



I will be very angry with myself if I end up dying of something related of drinkind alcohol and eating delicious food, because my motto has been, like Roys, something is going to kill you and in a Conflictive dangerous , risk full country as mine, most likely be an earthquake, a flood , or a bad man.
Who knows, I decided some time ago, to spend the money, to live the life the most i can. Delicious flavours included.

Is that a deep fried chunk of bacon?

Exactly

best thing about this is that i travel 100 miles twice a year to reach the place where my ancestors live where they make the chicharron in the moment (tuesday) and buy 10 pounds of it to eat me and my whole family like for about a week
Breakfast, dinner and all
they fry it on a "barro" cacerole and make them  in the momento, they make it from fat and meat and beleive me they taste like hell in heaven, specially accompanied by tortilla gordita of new corn, and soft hard cheese (yes thats its name) and of course one shot of scotch or a beer just deppends on time of day

and mgent feel free to join us in our alternatives for bacon push

Though not literally made from bacon, the bacon coffin is painted to look as if it is covered in savory strips. An article from Seattle's King5.com reports that local company J&D's Foods created the casket. This isn't the first time the company has found inspiration in bacon. J&D is also responsible for unleashing Bacon Salt and Baconnaise on the world.

A bacon coffin doesn't come cheap -- $2,999.99 plus shipping. But the interior does come with a bacon memorial tube and a bacon-themed air freshener. So you'll have that going for you ... which is nice.

Not made of real bacon?  LAME.
