For the love of Bacon

My best friend and I are bacon lovers. Her more then I, I have come to find. She loves everything bacon. If the recipe has bacon she will love it no matter what. For Christmas I got her bacon jerky and she loved it. She loves when Burger King has Bacon Ice Cream Sundaes. If you haven't heard of it, yes it's a thing. In a nut shell she is obsessed with bacon. Well recently I have noticed that I am not liking bacon as much. It is getting a little to salty for me. Low sodium bacon is still not as good. I think the closest I can eat now is turkey bacon. Well the other day I had to break the news to my best friend that I am no longer a bacon lover. It was sad day, but she took it well. It's just one thing that we no longer share and that's OK. Are you a bacon lover?

Yes, I love bacon! Only problem is it's not very healthy and is full of sodium. So I try and love it only occasionally.

That's a good idea. Everything in moderation.

I love bacon especially in burgers or side of pancakes/waffles, but I don't eat bacon as often.

Those are good ways too have them. I must say I still do love them in burgers.

Haha, I don't like I can do the ice cream either. But I do like the salty/sweet combination.

My husband and I love bacon but we only have it twice a month as a treat. Today we had bacon in a burrito.

That's a good idea to have it just as a treat. The stuff really isn't all that good for you!!

The same thing happened to me. I used to love bacon and now I can barely tolerate turkey bacon. I guess it's just our bodies begging us to stop! lol

Bacon has been out of our cuisine for years. Somehow I feel these meats are not good for health. I may be wrong.

Oh no I believe they are terrible for your health. But they are yummy for sure, well when I did like them.

If its a good variation of bacon, it's good but not everything bacon.

I do like bacon but I'm not obsessed with eating it. I've never had bacon ice cream nor chocolate covered bacon. I do like a good bacon cheeseburger

I even got her a donut with bacon. She loved that too. Bacon cheeseburgers are still good in my book.

I wouldn't say I'm a bacon lover, though I like bacon.

I would fry some bacon strips when my son was still studying. Now that he is already a college graduate, he no longer misses bacon.

Sometimes too much can make you not miss it anymore
