Lardon is a Los Angeles-based food truck that sells bacon for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It's been known to run out of one of its signature menu items, the Bacone: three pieces of bacon served in a paper cone.
A 200-pound pig can yield around 20 pounds of bacon.
The Sticky Pig website offers candied bacon with flavors such as coconut-curry lime, raspberry jelly doughnut, and s'mores.
Bacon is alright. I don't like it when it is too crispy, though.
Rule 5: Crispy and chewy are both acceptable ways to cook bacon. Thou shalt not discriminate.

American pork belly bacon has approximately 3 grams of fat per slice, about the same as a scant tablespoon of salad dressing.
Bacon-cured pork loin is commonly called back bacon.

There will be bacon today. Oh yes. There will be bacon.
I had a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich this morning. Mmmmmmm.
Thick-sliced bacon under the broiler as I type this. :)
Bacon in the morning, bacon in the evening, bacon in wintertime
Had more bacon for breakfast this morning. My usual breakfast when I'm down here is two side orders of bacon and a side order of toast.

One of my gifts: a 2.5 lb pack of Wright brand smoked bacon!
Had bacon for breakfast Christmas morning. Great start to the holiday.
There was a bacon quiche on Christmas morning. As I rather enjoy a well-made quiche, the inclusion of bacon makes it a blessed event.
Almost forgot to mention, one of the gifts I received was bacon candy canes. I am loved.

My kid ate bacon yesterday for the first time. I was so proud!
baked up a loaf of bacon and Swiss cheese oatmeal bread two days ago. Today I made french toast with it.
The Elysian Fields are nothing by comparison.

Finished off the last of that 2.5 lb pack of bacon this morning. I'm both happy and sad. But the sadness can be alleviated by purchasing more bacon.

I'm thinking today will be the last time we do breakfast with my folks for this trip. Might have to get the kid his own bacon this time so he doesn't continue to mooch off mine.
I got this for Christmas from Tim and Julie!
Tactical Bacon!
A few remaining entries from my 2012 Bacon Calendar....
Hash House a go go in San Diego, California, offers a BBBLT: Bacon, bacon, bacon, lettuce, and tomato.
Carlton Farms in Oregon has produced sweet-cured, dry-aged, slow-smoked, thick-sliced bacon since 1956.
A German smoked beer called Rauchbier has a bacon taste to it because the malted barley is dried over an open flame instead of a kiln.
Sadly, I do not have a 2013 bacon calendar. Not that I need a reason to continue talking about bacon....

On Saturday I put some crumbled bacon on roast mushrooms and brussels sprouts. Is that an acceptable use for bacon?

Kind of like Gollum and "the precious".
Out of all the parallel universes, only the ones where bacon exists survived

If your bacon is wriggling, you're doing it wrong.
Some people like their meat rare.

I've got a pack that I think I'll try to cook up this weekend. For the boy, of course......
LOL you had me at Bacon... too funny.
bacon is best when it is crisp. Baby Zombie said so.
Again I say Rule #5: Crispy and chewy are both acceptable ways to cook bacon. Thou shalt not discriminate.
My wife bought some pre-cooked bacon for the boy. You just pop it in the microwave for a few minutes and - bam!
Just had some bacon for breakfast. Can confirm that it's still delicious.
