A physicians group in Georgia put up a billboard targeting the fans of the Macon Bacon, a collegiate summer league baseball team, and wrote a letter to the team’s president. The Physicians Committee of Responsible Medicine’s billboard is located on Interstate 16 and asks fans to "keep bacon off your plate." The group also sent a letter to team president Brandon Raphael accusing the organization of glorifying the meat.

George Orwell was spot on. We are there.

The insane left offends me.

[Carriage Hill]

Exactly!
We all saw how their ‘agenda’ works, during the PLANdemic in 2020.

[Repeal The 17th]

In the late 90’s they had a minor league professional ice hockey team
named the “Macon Whoopees”.

LOL!

Heh...

“They are unhappy if anybody is happy somewhere in the world”

Well said.

[Bethaneidh]

Always a red flag for, well, Reds.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

After condemning pig meat, will they burn books written by Francis Bacon?

Probably.

I believe they are already renaming things named for Roger Bacon.

There is something delicious about glorifying bacon.

“We’re happy because we’re sad. We’re always feelin bad” “How do you feel” “Terrible” “um, that’s good.” “we’re happy because we’re sad.” From an old cartoon that I can’t find anymore, featuring frogs with dishes of water in their heads, kind of like early snowflakes, 50’s or so.

“There is too much bacon.”
- said no one ever.

[Carriage Hill]

I’m on a no sugar/low carb regimen, but ‘splurge’ once in a while, and bacon is included.

[Carriage Hill]

Mmmmmmmmm, Bacon!

[Carriage Hill]

Every time I eat it, I am thankful.

[dforest]

Ads pure deliciousness to any recipe.

[gitmo]

The name is a pun. Makin’ Bacon.

The Physicians Committee promotes plant-based diets

Pigs, cows, chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats, ducks, geese, deer, rabbits, etc. all eat plants.

I eat pigs, cows, chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats, ducks, geese, deer, rabbits, etc.

My diet is most certainly plant-based.

Bacon is *loaded* with the flavor umami, aka savory. Far more than most foods.

Vegetarians, in particular, lack savory in their diet, which is why bacon is the one thing that tempts them to break their diet.

Just say "HELL NO!" to such interest groups.

The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) is a non-profit animal liberation research and advocacy organization based in Washington, D.C., which promotes a plant-based diet, preventive medicine, and alternatives to animal research, and encourages what it describes as "higher standards of ethics and effectiveness in research." Its tax filing shows its activities as "prevention of cruelty to animals."

LOL! Had a little Spanish Drill Sergeant in Basic training, 1991, that used to say that! He was hilarious and would be rubbing it in that he was going home and night and “making’ bacon”.
