Important matters concerning the existence of Humanity - BACON

Absolutely. A perfect proportionate porcine supply chain solution proposition, @Capt MJ
 
DH and I are both sporting “food babies” tonight after a 39th anniversary dinner at an extraordinarily special place for a multi-course dinner. One of the courses was truly spectacular - a delicate garlic warm custard dotted with tiny bits of sun chokes, wild mushrooms and bacon bits from a local supplier, served in an empty egg shell with its top surgically sliced off by a laser (I asked).

If you ever have the time, the funds (worth every penny and more) and a love of beautiful food that also tastes delicious, this place is worth it as a “lifetime occasion.” Skim through the photo gallery.
Happy anniversary! And oh my, my foodie heart is now in love with that lovely restaurant. Will add it to my bucket list.
The closest I have ever come to that level food was a dinner in Sacramento with my sister.

Needless to say, I had my first ever piece of 'octopus bacon'. Yup, it's a thing.
 
😱
At least I can get the 3 lb pack of Wright’s at the military Commissary.
 
I made these over the past weekend.
Two alterations:
(1) I added bacon bits to the waffle batter. Of course.
(2) I completely swapped out the salad for a side of bacon. Of course.

I will happily eat salad, and am fond of bitter greens with a slightly sweet dressing, but not on my waffles.

So we're talking Apple-Bacon-Cheddar Waffles here, or did the bacon stand in for the apple (Bacon-Cheddar Waffles)?
I agree that salad is good, but has no business on the same plate as waffles.
 
The bomb: Make puff pancakes (a.k.a. Dutch babies) in a cast iron skillet, with chopped Granny Smiths and thick bits of cooked bacon. Swap out butter for bacon fat. Add a nice drizzle of pure maple syrup and indulge. Follow with a satisfying nap.

Pre-nap burp may be required depending on skillet diameter and if you shared.
I love a good Dutch baby.

O.M.G. you're killing me. Every time I go through Columbia SC, I go to the Original Pancake house to get a Dutch Baby with whatever fruit is in season. Fortunately I'm meeting up with DS there in a few weeks.

Try one with lemon curd one time. With a side of bacon, of course, since we are in the Bacon Thread and being watched.
 
I worked as a waiter at a country club in White Plains, N.Y. back in the ‘70’s where the chef made a special dutch baby style apple pancake. I served a lot of them but never ate one myself. But now I want to try one.

Will we get to 2000 posts by, say, 1 Jan 2022? Maintain the pristine record of no one yet banned for starting a bacon snark fest here? Is there a correlation between upticks in controversial threads and then upticks in the Bacon, Cocktail, Everything and other “sanctuary threads?”

Rhetorical ramblings.🤔
