I just dont get it! I seriously cannot fathom how someone could not like bacon.
I just cant wrap my head around it.

If i could i'd eat a package of bacon everyday.

And you can wrap bacon around ANYTHING and its delicious.

Because all other meat is better.

You're wrong and you know you're wrong. Liver, for instance, while palatable to me, is like eating condensed dirt next to the concentrated goodness of bacon. Also, cow's tongue is meat and is clearly inferior to bacon taste-wise. I could go on. You need to modify your position if you expect to be taken seriously.

Liver and Onions, cooked correctly, is delicious. Bacon is not.

Cows Tongue, I have only had it once, but I pronounce it greatter (it is a word now) than bacon.I have never had bull testicle, but I hear it is delicious as well.

Simply: Bacon is the worst of all meats I have eaten, anything else that uses pork is better, as are all other meats I have eaten.

then you've never had good bacon, theres no other reason i can think of, you just have not been lucky enough to taste good bacon.

I pity you.

Bacon is the only part of a pig I actually eat. As someone previously posted, it's best when the fat is just starting to turn golden brown. If it's too crispy and stiff I'd just as soon not bother.

I really regret not having bacon on hand after reading this thread...

[RodeoRanch]

Ah, good old prairie oysters. So disgusting.

Best part about branding season for cattle is playing testicle baseball with the left-over bull balls from the castrating.

And by best part, I mean the part that is singularly horrifying and amusing at the same time.

[Macros]

uncouth villans.
Don't you have the brains to squeeze the bulls when they're younger thus negating the need for the messy slice and dice approach?

God... this made me just shiver.

[Macros]

you wanna hold their tails when squeezing them, theres a split second where the bellow turns into a gasping breath, and you hear a distinct crunch sound, and jeez it makes me cringe and pull knees together in a girly protective fashion nearly every time

Those poor bulls. *shivers*

I remember something I forgot in my last post. The absolute best use of bacon is making bacon wrapped scallops. Take a decent sized scallop, roll around in some finely shredded parmesan cheese, then wrap in bacon, secure with a toothpick and cook under a broiler. Mmmmm....

Where I come from, a bull's testicle is called a 'prairie oyster' and is by all accounts delicious, though I have too much respect for bulls to eat any part of their genitalia. I respect your rejection of bacon because you are clearly one of those 'exceptions' (read: evolutionary throwbacks). From my perspective, there is something deeply wrong with you and I wouldn't trust you around my dogs but hey, stay out of trouble and we can still be friends

Kill yourself.

No, seriously. What you experience is not life. A baconless man is a man without joy. You're better off dead.

Thats ok, you have disliked me for years, Mr Grumpasaurus.

It is called a 'Rocky Mountain Oyster' here, but I assumed some people would not understand so I posted bull testicle.

It is not my fault I don't think meat should be crispy, or that pork chops are just so much more delicious than bacon.

I have concluded that other than a new SE book, bacon thread provide the mostest entertainment on the Forumii...

What is the big hub-ub about Bacon? All it is is fried (to a crisp, generally) pig. I would much rather have a nice slice of properly cooked ham, or a steak. Maybe even chicken.


Steak > Bacon
Ham > Bacon
Chicken > Bacon
Lamb > Bacon
Cheesecake > Bacon
Sourpatch Kids > Bacon
Whiskey > Bacon
...

Truly, all the items you refer to are worthwhile and good in their own rights.
And indeed, the various foodstuffs you ref in your later posts have their own glory.

But you're missing the vital and key point... which is, that, all those foodstuffs are IMPROVED by the addition of bacon. I defy, DEFY YOU, to add bacon to your chopped meat and slaw sandwich and deny that it is not improved. And further, it's important, no, it's critical, to note that unlike all those other foodstuffs, i can stab your heretical eyes out with bacon.

No.
You ARE a Rock Star.

I am currently eating a buffalo chicken sandwich, which is about 18 times better than anything with bacon in it.

Add bacon to it, then come back and we'll gouge your eyes out talk.

So bacon is the remora of meat? It must suckle upon the bigger, stronger meats to survive, as it is not good enough to survive upon its own?

That seems about right.

I do not weaken myself, or my enjoyment of other foods, but adding this 'suckermeat' to the truly great meats, such as steak, lobster, chicken, pork chops, or lamb.

And no, when I go to Burger King and get my 'Steakhouse' burger, I ask for NO BACON, as it ruins the rest of the burger, with its suckiness.

[Malaclypse]

OMFG I love Abyss, I truly do. Who else is around from the old days? What is this place? But Abyss just gets better :respekt:

[bwgan]

I went shopping today and bought very much BACON , most of which I will eat...but in healthy meals, because I am a good girl.

[Slow Ben]

Aaahh, just had some bacon for lunch. Excellent.

Testicle baseball, good times. Unless you get some idiot who thinks its fun to throw them at people and ruin everything.

[Sinisdar Toste]

in canada, bacon is round
and we don't fry it to a dry brittle crisp
