Thread: Bacon is not a food group.

  1. #1

    Default Bacon is not a food group.

    But damn it's good. Should I be worried that I might be eating too much of it? Last night I roasted a pork butt wrapped in bacon. Oooooooh, it is delicious.

    I'm old and today I did a 29 mile mountain bike ride in super sloppy conditions that included 2000 feet elevation gain (little bit over 3 hours). I do two or three of these a week. Should I mention that I drink lots of alcohol?

    Bacon is not a food group, but it should be.

    Well then you might have been okay. What type of alcohol do you primarily consume?

    The only problem with Pork is that it is quite fatty. It tastes delicious of course, but all things should be had in moderation!

    I find Bacon far to salty personally, dislike the taste as well and that applies with pork in general. I wouldn't turn down pork if it was the only thing offered to me, but if i had a choice i'd say no straight away. I actually can't remember the last time i had pork either.

    Pork tenderloin.

    Chops.

    Sausages not so much - my son amused me greatly the other day by asking me for bangers and mash for dinner. I'm not entirely sure where he got that one from, but I'm used to him saying things and being puzzled about how he ever heard them. And he didn't get what he wanted, either.

    I like bacon, but more in things than just bacon by itself.

    And I fucking love ham. Love it.

    oops forgot ham

    have ham, cheese and mayonnaise sandwiches on malted bread a couple of times a week

    You lost me with the mayonnaise.

    Not the kind of creamy white stuff I like.

    Bacon tastes good. Pork chops taste good.

    Pork chops are my favourite.

    Then it would be pork and caramelised red onion sausages.

    Then a dish my aunty cooks which is a pork joint cooked with an orange sauce. Mmmmmmm.

    After that I'd have to say bacon sarnies.

    yum, pork! I love bacon, especially the thick-cut peppered kind.

    Never tried the pre-cooked microwave type, but some swear it's the best.

    British bacon isn't real bacon. It tastes nothing like American bacon.

    For anyone who thinks bacon is too fatty, you should try beef bacon. Tastes the same, and has way less salt and fat.

    Point them out? Whatever for? They should be self-evident.

    Inglourious Bastards

    Beef Bacon? Is that like Beef Jerky? What the hell is British Bacon?

    Canadian Bacon is good. Turkey Bacon sucks.

  27. #27
    No, it looks and tastes just like real bacon, only it's made from beef. I know they had it in Whole Foods Market. And British bacon is much thicker and meatier. Doesn't taste anything like American bacon. Canadian bacon is kind of in between.

    Most bacon over here seems to be Danish.

    But Danish are cream cheese sweet rolls!

    I need to dig out my recipe for pork tenderloin with lime sauce. Heavy on cream and butter but it's to die for.
