Why I love Bacon...


I've just had a bacon Sandwich, I had one yesterday around this time also. Both times it was great, I can't think of a time when Bacon isn't a good idea. Its so flavorsome, its a breeze to cook and serve and the smell is exquisite.
I prefer unsmoked Bacon to smoked and when making a sandwich of normal propotions I favour three rashes and opt for the '69 technique' which essentially involves putting your bacon top to tail to encourage a healthy bacon to bread ratio.
I have attended 1 official Bacon Party in my very own backyard in Swindon however several unofficial ones have been held since then by simply buying large quantities of bacon and consuming, one of my favourite 32 rasher pack puraches I've made was in Lidl; where the tail of the bacon was triple the length of normal, great day.
I strongly disapprove of this and this, Bacon is already fairly cheap and shouldn't be compramised in either squeezy or can form. To summarise bacon is outstanding in its field, well when its a pig anyway.

I agree bacon is brilliant!

Lol, the bacon party!

There should be a Bacon Bank Holiday, where every meal has to involve bacon.
