Bacon kills pigs. That’s how bad it is.

Each daily serving of processed meat was associated with about 1.6 years of accelerated brain aging in cognitive function tests

If that is the case, my brain is 300 years old. A foot-long sausage grinder has at least four servings of processed meat. Then there is the occasional Wendy's Double Baconator. Just the name is good for a few weeks of aging.

Grandad was German immigrant, meaning a LOT of processed meats such as sausage, bratwurst, etc.

Lived to be 89.

So, if I eat bacon, I get dementia. If I don’t I go crazy. Some choice.

I bet 100% of the people who got dementia drank water at some point in their lives too.

don’t eat process meat made with preservatives, esp nitrates and nitrites. I buy bacon from a local producer... its forest raised and and salt cured

Bacon is a gift from God. Don’t listen to false prophets

If true all cave men and women would have died the first winter if they didn’t eat red meat and followers wouldn’t have made all the great things they did.

End of the history of man kind.

Oh no! My favorite is 6 slices, two eggs, on a fresh biscuit, w/pepper cheese.
I probably won’t last another week, so I’m going surfing.
(has anyone seen where I left my board?)
