Bacon makes everything better.

I always remember Homer Simpson's First Rule of Food: There is no food which cannot be improved by bacon bits and melted cheese.
And my own corollary: God created bacon to be FRIED.

And the second round of bacon is always better - deep fried in the first bacons' offerings.

I do that!  I didn't know if anyone else ever did.

I got nothing against any method of bacon cookery except maybe boiled. I was just very impressed at how good it tasted coming out of the oven.

Hmmm. I wonder how it would taste if you used bacon fat in the pan instead of water.

I am thinking that may result in a FAR!

Bacon is good anyway I think. For the love of Pete (sorry Pete) it is freaking bacon!  I put it in soup, so I guess I eat it boiled too.

I do not believe you can find a way to mess up bacon. Just different shades of delicious. But then, I never thought you could mess up eggs until I had my first sunny side up microwaved egg in Japan. It could have bounced. That's when I learned to appreciate rice, shredded lettuce, and raw fish for breakfast. But I always drew the line at natto.

How can anyone not like bacon??

PIGS would eat themselves if their bacon was fried.

Vegetarians are tempted by the smell of bacon.

Bacon is God. Bacon for President!!!111!!!11

Well, bacon suits me fine, if the fat's trimmed off of it before frying.

The fat adds taste in my opinion.
I could eat it raw. don't tell anyone.

[Spirit of Ronald Reagan]

Mmmmmmm, bacon.

[cclanofirish]

Yeah that.  Peas suck!

EXCUSE ME!!! Peas are the best vegetable next to corn (in my opinion) 

[cclanofirish]

If chairman Obama's plans come to fruition you will LIKE a potato and a quart of vodka every other day. You will think it is the best food ever.

Not a problem for me...must be my heritage. 

[NHSparky]

Stuff I didn't like as a kid--and still don't:

CANNED green beans.  Fresh are fine, however.
Beets.
Liver.

Other than that, I'm pretty much good to go.

Could?  Meh.

I have eaten it raw.  Loved it.  'Course, someone might say that that little factoid explains a lot about me now . . . 

[VivisMom]

Candied bacon is the food of the gods.

I'm a very picky eater, mostly because I have food allergies that prevent me from eating a lot of things. I have a list of things, however, that I won't eat...green beans and carrots being tied for the top spot.

It probably depends on the body structure and chemistry, which foods are good for one, and which aren't.

If someone can chew on fat with no deteriorative effects, and perhaps even derive some benefit from it, more power to that person.

But it works both ways.

[claret1995]

I have heard of that cooking method, but wondered if I would smoke out the house?  Please advise.

Nope
Two ways

On a rack with water underneath

or on cookie sheets( if you like to kep and use the BACON FAT)

425 degree oven


spread bacon out...17 to 20 minutes(longer if bacon is extra thick)

start watching at 15 minute mark..Bacon burns quickly

[Celtic Rose]

Foods I won't eat:

Ham
Pretty much any meat that has a lot of fat on it.  I'll eat around the fat, but I don't like to eat the fat itself
Bacon that is chewy
Tomatoes
Bell Peppers
Chicken on the bone.

Rubbery bacon is bad. Never did like cabbage in any form, although I love the smell of sauerkraut cooking. Which brings to mind coffee. Never could drink it, but love the smell. I didn't like green beans as a kid, but absolutely love them now; fresh preferable, frozen great but even canned will do.

I love fresh uncooked green beans    I don't remember ever putting up a fuss over eating vegetables. 

[The Village Idiot]

I can't wait 15 minutes.

In a pinch lay out bacon on a plate, cover with plate #2, put in microwave... cook..

smell beautiful bacon.

For less greasy bacon, wrap in paper towels first

I ate bacon for dinner last night. 

I had a piece of toast too.

The microwave works well, but sometimes the bacon sticks to the paper towels.  Ruined bacon - it's a travesty!  Have you ever tried the "instant" (precooked) bacon? 

[Lacarnut]

Things I won't eat:

hoghead cheese
sauerkraut
chitlings
raw fish---raw oysters ok.
shit on the shingle
half cooked eggs
pig feet

Which brings to mind coffee. Never could drink it, but love the smell.

Tuesday morning, my wife was holding The Heiress in the kitchen as I was pouring my wife her cup of coffee.  The Heiress leans over and says, "Could I have some coffee?"  My wife started laughing right off the bat, and I did after I picked my chin off the ground.  I'm thinking, "Where did she get that?!?"  My wife says, "Can you see what daycare would do if we were to give her some coffee before we dropped her off?  They'd go nuts!"  I get to daycare, and tell the monitor, "Wait 'till you hear this."  The monitor listens to me, than says, "After we do circle time at 9 AM, your daughter will go over to the play kitchen, grab a teacup, put it in the play microwave, punch some buttons, wait a bit, then take it out, and ask me to drink the 'coffee' she made for me."  I've done the whole Folgers' coffee bags routine only a handful of times in front of my daughter--it obviously left an impression.  (I'm dreading what else she's seen.)
