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!

Two things in the past two days have reminded me you you, Wink, and this blog... First, on of the registered Dietitians at my school who teaches a class told us about chocolate chip cookies sprinkled with BACON inside!!! (yes. really.) and then theres this: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/28/dining/28bacon.html?no_interstitial

wow.
"If photoshopping your newborn baby onto a bacon winged unicorn is wrong, then I just don't want to know what's right."

This. THIS. It's too much.
It's things like this that make me believe in a just and loving Universe :D

Bacon comes from the Bacon Bush. I refuse to believe otherwise.

MMMmm, i saw a programm on pig farming the other day and i must that i was horrified! Iam always very careful with the meat i buy but i hadnt realized how atrocious the ordeal is for the little piggies!
Saying that i am not prepared yet to give it up but will definately only be bying my bacon from 'pig friendly' farms.... ;-)
I bought myself some Bacon Salt yesterday! Now, to put it on everything.
Is it as wondrous and magical and heavenly as I imagine??? (I'll msg you the exact phrase I want to use...)

No calories, no fat = hooray! The sodium is killer though :( Aaaaah, fcuk it.
BACONNAISE!
I really like the whole campaign they've put together: bacon punches straight to the mouth, good for flavouring your arm etc. I'll buy from them based on humour alone :)
