Important matters concerning the existence of Humanity - BACON

Thick and crispy but no char. Just crunch perfection and a lovely striated balance of lean:fat.
It probably doesn’t need to be said, but American bacon, not English, Irish or Canadian, per the discussion a few pages ago.
 
I eat bacon most ways, except floppy. Floppy bacon is awful.

Which reminds me of the age-old question: "Do you remember the worst bacon you ever ate?"

"It was pretty good, wasn't it?"

er.....YES ! I will take either way.
(I guess i prefer and usually make it middlin' , but I often eat a little as it cooks, and sometimes I really go for the well cooked so it kinda melts in your mouth).

the really well cooked, almost burnt stuff is what I use to make warm bacon vinaigrette, with Dijon mustard. Yum
 
I've debated where to make this post. A new thread in off topic? Nah, doesn't seem like a big enough item. Maybe in Humor for Navy and Marine and Marines? Maybe but it's not a Big Navy specific thing. Then I thought of a peanut butter and bacon sandwich and new this post belonged here.

RIP Mr. Peanut. We hardly knew ye.
 
The tweets are hilarious.

Another one to ponder - the Michelin tire man, along with the Pillsbury Doughboy, have really slimmed down over the last 20 years.

I don’t know whether they are eating less bacon or have gone keto with more bacon.
 
"Doughboy was buried in a lightly bacon-greased coffin"
 
I just now realized that I haven't had any bacon since breakfast last Wednesday.
No wonder I'm cranky.
 
Buffoonery adventures in bacon:

I had winter training for a program I'm in, and I got the day off school. I woke up around 07:00 and headed to my local Sonic, where I ordered a toaster with bacon 🤤 (lightly toasted bread, eggs, melted cheese and most importantly bacon)

THEY BURNED IT! Like it was BLACK. The bacon was BLACK

I sent it back almost immediately. The carhop was like "...you're sending it back?" and I said "Yes ma'am. This is a disgrace to the entire bacon eating community."

She has the AUDACITY to respond with "There's a bacon eating community...?"

Some people 🙄
 
Today at work, the cafeteria served a broccoli-and-cauliflower salad that was dressed with a tangy yet also sweet vinaigrette. What made it truly delicious is that it also included sizable chunks of bacon — the type that, when we lived in Europe, was referred to as lardons. (I love that word — lardons). So not only did I get my requisite veggie fix, I also had a moment of midday bliss. Ahhh, bacon...
 
So I dove over here to seek relief from the threads regarding 'waves of appointments'. While I recognize some anxiety has abated for us as DS has appointment, he is still waiting for other apps and of course we are curious as to results.
BUT, I need to not look at those threads and only think of vehicles for bacon.

Found this, few good ones to try, and I am partial to the Sonoran Dog since we are miles from Sonora, Mexico and they are sold here by street vendors.

You are an outstanding representative of the Bacon Warrior community. Semper Bacon!

No, wait, let’s have some Latin fun:

Semper lardum. (Yep, this is exactly what you think it is. How perfect.)

Adducere domum lardum. (Bring home the bacon.)

Ova et lardum. (You know this one.)

Lardum Bellator. (Bacon Warrior! What a cool screen name.)

I'm trying to lose holiday wait so I've been bringing BLT's for lunch 3 days a week. Now if we could just go back to the days of having a whiskey decanter in your office.🥃
