Bacon at any cost
Posted on September 27, 2012 by Cowboy Byte

It’s bad enough that global warming prophecies predict seas around the world will rise, a million species will become extinct, and hurricanes and cyclones will level the landscape, but now dire forecasts say a world shortage of bacon is looming.

The theory goes like this: Climate change has created a drought, the drought drives up the cost of feed, pig farmers can’t afford feed, pig farmers can’t afford pigs, the crunchy goodness of a BLT goes silent.

This. Must. Stop.

Im not picky.

As long as its bacon made from pigs, I dont give a ****. Just give it to me and let me die a happy man.

I used to be of this mindset. Then I had the best bacon on the face of the earth. Now I get pissed when the wife brings home anything else. I might have a bacon problem.

I enjoy all bacon, including the turkey variety. Be careful, though. Some of the Turkey stuff can have more salt or even fat than the real variety.

There is no such thing as "turkey bacon."

The death penalty should be given for putting that on a label.

I love bacon.

"When you're standing in the lunch meat section of a grocery store, you start getting angry at turkey's....

You see turkey bacon, turkey ham, turkey bologna.....someone should tell the turkey, be yourself....I like you just the way you are....you do not need to emulate the other animals... I use to draw you (holding spread out his hand)" - Mitch Hedberg

Its like Soy Milk.

Soy is a bean.

Milk comes from Mammals.

No such thing as Soy Milk. Its bean juice people. BEAN JUICE.

I just put in an order for the wife to pick up some Wright Brand Maple Bacon. Thanks to modern computers, I didn't have to get out of this chair right here.

I will have it, oh yes, I will have it.

I have brother that is a rancher..

Each year he trades a young bull to the kid down the road for a hog.. Not sure of the trade value or if it is twofers..

after the county fair they take them to the butcher in town..and they both have enough pork or beef for almost a year..

I do know that is the best bacon I have ever have damned near a 1/4" thick and almost no fat..

it is not something you can get in a store.. No hormones in either just farm/ranch raised all American meat..

and for those that care he takes Lipitor as the cholesterol is hereditary..

He shouldn't be taking Lipitor. Read up on some of the studies done recently linking Lipitor to advanced Alzheimer's.

I would guess that his doctor thought not knowing your dying is better than fast and sudden..


Seriously :thumbsup: Thanks I will tell him about it..

I will pick some of this up next time I'm in the states, but I don't think it'll come close to homemade bacon.

Double smoked goodness, no need to fry, and thus easier to clean up, therefore you get to eat it more.
