For Your Breakfast +/or Your Cardiologists Pleasure...

[WAYNO]

I use my gas grill often. I know the purists tell me I'm all wrong, but I will not apologize.
I include a pan of wood chips while it's cookin', and I turn out some pretty scrumptious stuff.

 

[Wyandot Jim]

Well that looks good for a snack before breakfast in Texas.

A little bacon sandwich for lunch. I probably need to cut back on the un healthy bread.

Now I'm ready for dinner.

BUT < MOST of the bacon you find in the markets these days seems to be about 75-80% FAT ; If I wanted "pig fat" I would buy a bucket of lard !!

 

[Watertender]

Steak and eggs with shredded hash browns and rye toast is a fair substitute for bacon and eggs. The local diner here deep fries their bacon and finishes it on the grill. The cup is mine and many of the regular patrons have their own coffee cups there.

I’ll go out on a limb and say I really don’t care for bacon that much.

Same for the wife. Like samual Jackson in Pulp Fiction, we just “don’t dig on swine.”

I understand. Some folks are born with disabilities, and you have my sympathy -- and never-ending thanks for your share of the bacon, which I will eat...

the only thing wrong with that meal is the eggs need to be cooked just a tad more >> for me any ways

After my heart attack I quit eating bacon.. now I just eat sausage..........

 

[freakindawgen]

While at the VA hospital, they had turkey sausage. Where does the turkey have enough fat to make sausage?

You don't really want to know.

I like bacon OK, but if I'm going to eat dead pig meat I prefer barbequed pulled pork.

Now now, now guys,, let's not pick on CG or Kevin. If they don't want bacon,,, it does leave more for others of us who do like it.
Besides,,, some people can have medical issues with certain foods as well. Miss Penny had her gall bladder removed years ago, and since,, her tolerance for anything with too much fat or grease gives her problems.
When we get bacon, we buy a premium type. We enjoy "Wright's" bacon. And when cooking,, I make sure it's done a bit more crispy for her. Drain the grease, and use it in other dishes that need a little help with flavor or oils.

But,, the really good stuff is "homemade!" You get to trim it as you wish, and reduce the amount of fatty tissue to where a lean bacon is the end result.

But quality comes at a cost. More than the cheap market stuff.

Cardiologist has me on a low-sodium diet and my primary wants me to lose weight, so bacon consumption is limited. But I make a pretty good low-sodium, low-fat sausage that I have for lunch with two scrambled eggs (with lots of hot sauce!)==Breakfast is simply several cups of coffee but I do eat lunch early most days and take my noon insulin with it!

On the other hand, we have a road trip coming up and there's a Native American restaurant on "The Rez", so MAYBE some frybread (Indian Taco) for lunch tomorrow!

 

[Colonialgirl]

Now, Now !!!
I NEVER SAID I DIDN'T LIKE BACON !!!

I just cant see paying today's high prices for a load of FAT and very little lean on the bacon strip.
I DO BUY bacon BUT ONLY AFTER carefully sorting through the bacon offerings on the shelf.

 

[Dave P.]

My wife recently bought some bacon it was a Wrights brand but I don't remember the specific type or description.
When pulled apart to fry it it was the consistency, thickness and color of greasy wet notebook paper.
Nasty stuff, pretty much pure fat. I went ahead and cooked it but...yuck!
Don't know why she tried it, store may have been out of what she wanted.

I eat thick slice jalapeno bacon every week. I don't worry about what people think about it. I eat what I want.

 

[Armybrat]

Made to order egg white omelets at the Las Vegas buffets are really tasty, as long as they stuff enough bacon & cheese in them.

We had a decent breakfast this morning at a place called First Watch. She had French Toast, I had the Trifecta. Pretty good, but six hours later I’m still full.
