The three words missing from this headline is "when COOKED RIGHT." My mother, bless her heart, cannot make good bacon at all. It's physically impossible for her to do so. Think the emotional scars are why i haven't ever been hugely into bacon.

Eating bacon and onion pizza right now, getting a kick, etc

Cooking bacon in a microwave should be a crime!

/felt good to get that off my chest

I thought the answer was poop

I'm a very reasonable person, and I fully understand that different people have different tastes. However, that having been said, anti-bacon people should be rounded up and murdered.

I knew it was about bacon before opening TFA

Bacon haters can go eat a bowl of dicks and die in a fire.

If it's just that bacon is so yummy, why wasn't anyone spooging about it during the 70s, 80s or 90s??

Much like zombies, it's a trend that's seen its time in the spotlight and now needs to go away.

I like bacon, and I'm not going to stop eating it, but I'm tired of reading about it.

Hey, sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie, but I'd never know 'cause I wouldn't eat the filthy motherfarker. Pigs sleep and root in shiat. That's a filthy animal. I ain't eat nothin' that ain't got sense enough to disregard its own feces.

Few years back I posted a recipe for bacon twists. The outpouring of love made me tear up. I even had a haiku written for me.

/behold the power of bacon!

Oldiron_79: Bacon haters can go eat a bowl of dicks and die in a fire.

That's pretty racist against Arabics. Pigs are deadly to them, it contaminates their soul with pathogens. They have no choice.

I made candied bacon for a party last weekend. It was a big hit.

Right. If it's just that bacon is so yummy, why wasn't anyone spooging about it during the 70s, 80s or early 90s??

FTFM

Either you love bacon or your wrong.

Or daughter has FASD. One of the consequences of that is that she's sensitive to textures and seems to lack any appetite whatsoever. It's been a challenge just to get her to eat, and meat is an especially difficult thing for her to eat. She also likes to play mind games with us, likely due to past psychological trauma.

Finally, we gave up and told her that if she really didn't want to eat meat, we wouldn't make her, and would provide a vegetarian alternative. She was thrilled with this, until we had a meal with bacon. She looked at us, and said "hey where's mine?". We explained that since she was no longer eating meat, she would no longer get bacon.

She FREAKED out, started bawling, and begged us for bacon, with the promise that she would, from this point forward, eat other meat without making a scene. We haven't had (much) of a problem feeding her since.

God bless you, bacon!

People were splooging about it during that time but not as obnoxiously.

Didn't that other thread about "things that need to disappear in 2013" just biaytch about bacon too?

Where the hell is this bacon hate coming from? It's godsend.

I blame Epic Meal Time.

Bacon: the food so good, it's used to make already delicious foods even better.

I tried to find an image of 'THIS' spelled out with bacon, but the internet failed me. So... um... THIS.

prosciutto > bacon

What about vegetables that grow in manure? They have particles of shiat up in them!

Wash the farking pig off and get on with your life.

Lack of Internet.

I like bacon, but recently had the misfortune of trying Bacon Soda.

You know something is bad when the guy at the register tries to talk you out of it. He even looked at my brother (who was going to try it too anyway) and told him to be careful not to stand in front of me when I drank it. He also said--as I opened it up at the register--that we wouldn't make it back to our car before we poured it out.

We mentioned to him that we had tried the Bacon Shakes that Jack in the Box did a while back, which were great. He said that the employees at the shop (who are mandated to taste every drink they stock) theorized that it was the more fatty and solid nature of the shakes that made it work.

He was right.

It smelled like sticking your nose into a jar of fake bacon bits. Not at all an unpleasant smell, really. We took two small sips each and realized we had made a huge mistake, and we would regret it. We stopped at a trashcan halfway to the car, emptied it, then waited around a minute in case we finally decided we had to puke. Somehow we didn't.

The worst part? Those two small sips led to an hour of burps that just nauseated you all over again.

Potatoes and onions fried in bacon drippings with little bits of bacon stuck to the skillet...

Muslims, Jews & vegetarians are really missing out on something delightful.

You bacon lovers now know how bronies feel.

Think about it.

The important thing is that bacon cured her.

I'm going to put it in my Zombie Survival Kit (along with some Oatmeal comics) so I have the energy to Gangnum style.

This. The obsession is marketing, just like the obsession kids used to have about milk.

Turn around baby let me take you from behind Makin' bacon is on my mind...

No. We were spooging about it. Just there was no Internet, so no one else knew.

If God ever decided to have a meal with me, I'd offer her bacon and I'd feel good about it.

Because we just farking ate it like normal people. We didn't have this newfangled "internet" so people could turn bacon into some kind of hipster cred. BACON IS NOT HIP! You ate bacon because your mother or your wife couldn't properly make biscuits at breakfast and you needed something to wash the taste out of your mouth. You ate bacon because you had to cook the eggs in something, and butter was for the French. You ate bacon because that's what your father, and his father, and his father before that ate. You ate bacon because you had hair on your chest and you wanted more. You ate bacon because compared to Spam, it tasted and smelled like a $100,000 call girl.

What you didn't do was TALK about bacon. Everyone knew it was good. The only time bacon was talked about was if whoever served it to you couldn't cook it properly, and those discussions were usually about hiding the body, because what good is a person who can't cook bacon?

Perhaps he should wash the taste of the meat he does enjoy out of his mouth and try bacon again.

Had maple bacon cupcakes two weeks ago. Even though I love bacon, I thought it would be a bit much.

It wasn't. Had a nice maple taste and the pieces of crispy bacon on the top added just the right amount of flavor without being greasy or overpowering the rest of the cupcake.

In the defense of pigs
The only reason they root around in their own shiat is because we stuck them in there with it. They're generally clean animals. Insanely omnivorous though.

Also: See factory farmed cows
Like spreading manure over the grass that the cows eat and then feeding the cows dead cows that are ground up.
That is how mad-cow disease spreads, hello
Big picture of a bunch of cows standing around giant mounds of poo

I think the notion of bacon as a trendy thing is overdone.

It is however, tasty.... as bacon.

I had bacon flavored vodak one evening. The host of the soiree looked at my expression after I sipped it and wondered what to do with the rest of it since it was so bad. I realized that all it had was the smoke flavor and suggested he use it to marinate meat. Otherwise, it'd do as paint thinner.

Best way to eat bacon:

Box of dates, package of bacon, toothpicks, cookie sheet. Wrap each date in a strip of bacon and place on cookie sheet. Broil til it's done. Make sure you are alone in the house, else there will be a fistfight.

Second best:

Cook bacon. Put maple syrup to taste on it.

Hell, bacon isn't even the best part of breakfast. Give me scrambled eggs or toast with butter or jam instead of bacon.
