I'm a "flexitarian," which, for me, means that I only eat meat from animals that have lived natural lives: no factory farming, no feedlots, etc. As a result of my personal standards, I am pretty much a vegetarian.
I never ate bacon every day. When I was brunching regularly with friends, I'd maybe have it once a week. With a touch of maple syrup, please. But now that I can't have it at all, I crave it! My boy bought me a bacon-scented air freshener for my car (I refuse to take it out of the plastic wrapper) and we shared a Mo's Bacon Bar* from Vosges as a rare treat. I even found a recipe online for candied bacon, which I want to make when I find some happy-pig bacon! My favorite bacon, hands down, was Nueske's from Wisconsin. Lucky for me, I haven't been in Wisconsin since I went veggie, so I haven't been tempted. :)

What's your bacon story? Poppy? The floor is yours. :)


*That's Mo as in Mo Frechette from Zingerman's in Ann Arbor, MI... and the bacon is Nueske's!

I bring you:
My undying love and devotion :D David Liebowitz always delivers the good, good goods.

I don't know if I'd ever get past the candied bacon stage. I can see myself, 5 batches of bacon in, sugar-glazed chin and not a single pint of ice cream to show for it!

Bacon, brown sugar, and WHISKEY. Isn't that the Holy Trinity?

You know, it's been so long since I've been in the Church of Bacon (weeks, I tell you: WEEKS!) that it's all starting to get a little fuzzy. I shall be sure to worship a little extra on Sunday ;)

Okay, now I need to go get some bacon. I'm a huge lover of turkey bacon ;) Something a little strange about me is that I absoutely cannot eat regular bacon unless it is EXTRA crispy. There's nothing worse than limp bacon ;)
Well, there's one thing worse than limp bacon...
;D

Simple, but effective:The Ultimate Bacon Sandwich


No doubt part of the Bacon Sandwich Diet!
I found bacon from Maverick Ranch. No nitrates, no hormones, no antibiotics, "dedicated to environmentally sustainable ranching." Certified humanely raised and handled. BACON: I HAZ IT.
::doing the HAPPY DANCE OF JOY for you::

Mmmmm, nitrate free.
I had bacon for breakfast. It was sad, yucky bacon. I never thought such a thing existed, but now I know better.
My innocence has been cruelly stripped!!
