National Bacon Day – December 30, 2019
National Today ^ | 12/30/19

Mmmm, bacon. Just saying the word makes us hungry. It’s an incredibly versatile food. You can eat it on a burger if you’re ready for a major calorie-fest. Conversely, you can crumble it over a salad if you’re trying to be kind of healthy (but let’s be honest, nothing is healthy with bacon on it). Or you could make it the star of the show by simply pairing it with eggs. No matter what you do, bacon is greasy, delicious, and the most beautiful thing we’ve ever seen. if you, too, want to climb a tall building and scream at the top of your lungs, “I love bacon,” then please join us in celebrating National Bacon Day on December 30.

C - It has superpowers

Bacon contains a nutrient (we know, we’re surprised too) called “choline.” It’s been known to increase intelligence and memory, fight Alzheimer’s Disease, and protect the heart from developing lethal problems.

“....(but let’s be honest, nothing is healthy with bacon on it)”.
That statement is the kind of lying gibberish we’ve been fed by the cabal that touted processed carbs as “healthy”. And, it contradicts the entire last paragraph which follows it.

That’s Hot!
Here we combine cayenne and brown sugar to coat the bacon before placing it in the oven. Have yet to attempt chocolate coated bacon. Perhaps one day soon. Normally, when chocolate comes into the house, it’s promptly eaten,

The brilliant individual who suggested cooking bacon in the oven should be be winner of ‘The Silver Spoon’. This procedure makes for crisper and more healthy bacon. Wouldn’t you agree?

I saw a cute meme on Facebook yesterday. Obi Wan Kenobi saying, “I feel a disturbance in the Force...someone is out of bacon.”

Unfortunately I didn’t save it.
