Bacon

Yeah, I did a search on bacon, it returned the whole forum.

I just got a bottle of Bacon Hot Sauce, recommended!!

http://www.baconhotsauce.com

And the Calendars are in! Yay!

Anyone have other favorite bacon related products? I have been a bacon fanatic for years so it was great to find out that so many burners are equally obsessed with the meat candy.

This is not quite a bacon related products, it's actually bacon.
I'm not sure why it took our civilized society so long to come up with this idea. It's fully pre cooked and needs not refrideration until opened. It can be microwaved or cooked in a pan with virtually no mess. Also, the fat that comes off at the factory is used for other uses to give that bacony good flavor to other human foods as well as animal foods. This fat would have been wasted otherwise.

I can not think of a better treat than a thick, crispy strip of smoked bacon.

May I suggest some BOPs (bacon overload paddles) to keep handy while enjoying that healthy and delicious taste treat?

Word is that the popularity of ethanol fuel is making pig food more expensive, driving up pork prices.

So can we say that Everclear killed the bacon?

Is Everclear made out of corn?

Hey, is Everclear cheaper than gasoline? Maybe we can run our cars off of it... :wink:

Pretty much every thing is make of corn. Including vodka. I don't know what the characteristic that makes vodka "vodka" if it isn't brewed from potatoes.
On the other hand, I'm still trying to wrap my head around "rum" make from potatoes with flavorings added. I know, central Europe, but is it really rum if it isn't made from sugar cane?

Everclear is a "neatral grain alcohol" made from a variety of grains, in a "mash".
It may contain corn, I guess, though.


nope, not cheaper than gasoline.

Factory hog farms are one of the most devastating things for the environment. The ones in the Carolinas produce more waste than entire cities, yet due to loopholes, the waste doesn't have to be treated. They just spread it on their 'farms', and it makes its way into the local waterways, where it creates all kinds of bacteria & parasites. It stinks up the air for miles & miles, making the area uninhabitable. And the parasites actually eat away at fish & human flesh.
Robert Kennedy Jr. does some amazing advocacy for this issue. You should check out some of his lectures on it.

Personally, I love it when I'm at work, and a livestock truck loaded with pigs/hogs goes by: the smell that follows. That does not bother me one bit.

*yanks NT's soap box out from under him* For Chrissakes, why must you taint every thread you go into. Why don't you start yet another thread of what you think is right or wrong with whatever you want? And let posters come to you.

I apologize to everyone if I'm out of bounds.

Because bacon is so trendy now it's become a meme. And most people don't know how horrible factory hog farms are.
Perhaps you could enlighten us.

Took me a minute to figure out what you meant. You haven't plonked that troll yet? It really improves the BS to content ratio of the threads. I actually liked the guy until he just went balls to the wall with his either/or black/white yes/no binary version of ethics and inflammatory posts attacking people.

You shold try it!
