"New research suggests eating bacon tends to lower sperm count."

Mr. Kitty is a bacon aficionado and managed to get the job done. ;-)

Maybe that's Pajama Boy's problem - he eats too much bacon.

Nawww, he looks like he needs to eat more red meat.

I’m racking my brain and can’t come up with any food item that is not delicious when wrapped in bacon.

Ice cream. But that's about it.

“Bacon is like meat”!

Yeah, for sure. This has been a great year for we trenchermen! First coffee was deemed good for us. Then, the experts said salt is not bad for us. Now, a study states that bacon is good for us. Just waiting to learn that chicken fried steak lowers cholesterol and I’ll be set!

Beets and brussel sprouts are just about the only foods I don't like, that I have tried at least. And I will try most anything. I've eaten jellyfish and raw octopus.

But Brussel Sprouts and Beets never reach the point of delicious, improved yes, but far from delicious.

That just means you didn't use enough bacon.

You are correct. In sufficient ratio, the compound could be delicious. But we are talking crumb size per spoonful on the non-bacon parts, and a big spoon.

Hey Kitty,

Believe me, not getting enough meat is not Pajama boy’s problem!

I keep it from when I cook bacon and use it for frying eggs, etc. Tastier than in butter!
