Bacon is glorious.


Canned peaches

The combination of bacon and ANY fruit is a welcomed sweet-n-salty goodness that is delivered as a symphony of flavors on any palate.

I'm from the UK but now in the US.

If I wanted Rindless Bacon like you can get in the UK, the US equivalent would be an empty packet!

Wheres the meat waaaaaaahhhhhhh.Lol

I miss proper bacon. Cry

It's broken and it's been broken for a long time and it'll be broken for some time to come.

Best bacon thing I ever ate was a steak, wrapped in streaky bacon and pan fried. Served in a large baguette stuffed with back bacon and then smothered in a tangy, minty BBQ sauce.

I may have shortened my life, but damn it was worth it.

banal gibberish


Just because it's called "bacon" in the USA does not mean it is bacon.

The americans get lots of naming conventions wrong

Football

are just a small handfull of examples.


You say that as if the UK knows what good food tastes like.

Bacon and pancetta are two things made from the same part of the pig but in different ways, pancetta being obviously superior. Bacon is dull-tasting fat with little meat and a light, smoky aroma whereas pancetta is an explosion of different flavors and is much meatier.

I see this is a losing battle. I know these bacon fappers aren't exactly discerning eaters, nor are they known for being able to tell the difference due to having their taste buds completely burned off from years of eating crap, but come on. Bacon is incredibly overrated and it's due to people who have no idea how good food should taste. "Wow, this steak is delicious! I bet it'd be even better smothered in some BBQ sauce/gravy/peanut butter!!!" Roll

I understand why they do it, though. They do it because they have no taste left in their mouth from years of eating garbage, so any flavor whatsoever that is able to break through their dulled senses is held up as nothing short of miraculous. I like greasy, unhealthy food just as much as the next person, but I at least realize there is a hierarchy.

Wat? Denny's, IHOP, Waffle House, Just about any place that serves bacon is awesome... How dare you!

Pray. That's about the only thing you can still do while you're alive.

If what you mean by "awesome" is, "Thank goodness there's something open at this hour...I'm so drunk/high and I'm starving!", then yes...they're awesome. Nothing's better than a Waffle House at 3 am when you're starving.

That said, it still doesn't constitute quality food. It's just loads of heavy-tasting food that you can shove in your gob as fast as you can in order to make those hunger pangs go away.

I'm going off bacon alone. As long as it's not burnt, it is still good no matter what. The rest of the food at those places is horrible and are correct on the drunk and going to waffle house or ihop at 3 am. Depends on my budget at the time. I haven't been "high" in a good while.

Every Sunday, I conduct a sermon in the local Waffle House to worship bacon.

Then carry on my good man!

Don't get me wrong, I love bacon to death. Eat it all the time. I just don't fap over it like the rest of the sheep do because they saw some ridiculous meme on FB.

Maybe people just started eating bacon recently for the first time? 15 years ago it wasn't such a big deal. Hell, 5 years ago it wasn't such a big deal. Then again, 15 years ago our country still had a shred of dignity and taste left. It started out as something humorous and then became some sort of freakish religion. I could understand if there were memes about Argentinian beef, Italian prosciutto, cheese, wine, and speck, New Orleans cuisine, Maine lobster, French cheeses and wine, etc...but BACON?

It's like someone getting ecstatic over a Dodge Dart when they already have the keys to a Ferrari.
