Buy a side of pork belly from your butcher and enjoy the decadence that is pig!

As I understand it, most bacon is cut from pork belly, but buying the actual product and butchering it yourself removes the nitrates and other preservatives used in the curing process.

I cut up my pork belly into lardons for salads or thick strips for breakfast on Saturday. It’s also delicious if marinated in a maple syrup, soy sauce, and ginger mixture, cut into small filets and baked. SO GOOD!

My grandpa ate bacon every breakfast for as long as I knew him and I’m sure decades before. In fact he would even pour the drippings over his eggs and biscuits. He lived to 86...and to think he might have made it to 110 if it wasn’t for that accursed bacon!

The government should sue the Boy Scouts as food terrorists.

Yes it’s too late for me. I think it’s how much and how often is a big factor.

So choose between bacon and short-but not guaranteed-life, or possible - but not guaranteed - long life without bacon?

No-brainer. Fire up the pan.
