Except in the case of Gertrude Baines, who lived to be 115 on a diet of bacon and eggs.

Was the bacon your grandfather ate cured?
The nitrates put in store bought bacon aren’t so good for us.

Most of the bacon and sausage he ate was store bought.

“He died 3 months short of his 93rd birthday.”
Mine had the same lifestyle. He was still riding a motorcycle at 93. He made it to 96.

I'm familiar with that diet!

My grandfather STRAPPED ON his old ice skates, when he was 75, and skated on his pond. Just to prove to himself that he still could.

I too was thinking of my grandfather. They ate cured meats because there was no refrigeration, their meat staples were ham, bacon, and ham hocks for seasoning...lard for frying. They ate pork because it was cheaper to raise than cows, and as my dad tells it, you didn’t kill a chicken unless the preacher was coming for dinner (too valuable for the eggs they produced.)
Grandpa lived to be in his 90s. His favorite part of the ham was the “cracklin’;”

Perhaps they can use drones to detect, prosecute and murder the offending sausage dealers, I dunno, just a thought.

I don’t know how long I would want to live eating cous-cous and leaves every day. Eighty years? I don’t think so; that sort of diet would be a prison sentence.

I saw nitrate free bacon in Kroger the other day. Interesting, must be pretty new on the market.
Nitrates or not, bacon is God’s food. That settles it.

After eating all the bacon and sausage he liked my grand dad says he should have died in 1792 ...
