Send in your favorite bacon recipe, bacon story, bacon idea, bacon poem, bacon philosophy, bacon – ANYTHING. BACON, the ultimate meat to eat. Who’s idea was it? They need a special place in history, like Abe Lincoln, Henry Ford, Albert Einstein, Rosa Parks. . . Keven Bacon. . . I mean COME ON! Bacon. I have NEVER met a person who doesn’t love bacon. Normal person, not a vegetarian or vegan.  And seriously, if you took a vegetarian or vegan, injected them with some sort of truth serum, they’d confess to missing bacon.

You’ve seen that commercial where the dog runs around the house because is smells bacon…”Bacon, bacon, bacon…I SMELL BACON!” ? Yeah? That’s me in dog form.

Come on people, let’s talk BACON!

Chadly says - I’m not sure about a bacon recipe, but I will throw in that Farmer John’s bacon seems to cook up better than any other type I’ve purchased.

It would be fun to do a non-sponsored (AKA Fixed) bacon taste test. I dunno what you’re meaning when you say “fixed”, but not only yes, but HELL yes! NON- Sponsored? Oh, NO. Get all sorts of manufacturers to send me a sample pound of bacon because we’re doing this thing on RTPAP. . . I’d be dead in a week. (what a way to go though – death by bacon – “I’m sorry, but he overdosed on bacon, his heart just couldn’t take it”.) Wouldn’t it be cool if the old saying “An apple a day…”  was really “Bacon every day, keeps the doctor away”. ?

The following poem was written by WarsawNan and is in my humble opinion worthy of a Pulitzer. Because of it’s greatness, I now appoint WarsawNan as RTPAP’s official Poet Laureate…. I give you

Achin’ for Bacon

I’m achin’ for bacon–

fatty, not lean–

crisped up in the oven,

that’s what I mean!

Tossed in potatoes

or served up on bread,

I’ll be achin’ for bacon

’til the day that I’m dead!

I’m achin’ for bacon–

my brother is too!

We just can’t get enough.

How about you?

Bacon’s so tasty,

I love it a lot!

I go to the store and

buy all that they’ve got!

I eat it for breakfast,

for lunch and for dinner.

(Who gives an oink

if I’ll never get thinner!)

To heck with your veggies,

your tofu and greens.

I’m achin’ for bacon–

know what I mean?
