Do you like bacon?

[askingalways]

Straw poll..

Do you like bacon?

I like bacon... but for breakfast or sandwich I prefer sausage.

Yes. All bacon. Any bacon. Bacon.

Yep.

Sympathy on the speck. I was served that by a host family as a teenager in the 80s (so before we got pish continental hams, here) and was quite put out, at first, at the idea of raw bacon.

Yes from me and yes from my DH

No. The smell is absolutely revolting! I never can understand its appeal to so many people.

Yes - LOVE IT.
But it’s got really expensive for decent bacon ( can’t stand all the white crap that comes out of cheap salty over processed bacon)
I only like a dry cure.

So , now I make my own. It’s bloody fab and costs pennies more than the base cost of the pork loin/belly pork.
It just means that whenever friends / family come round they all want a bacon sandwich!!

Do bears shit in the woods!!

I love bacon

Yes, in a bacon & egg sandwich on fresh bloomer from the bakery in the village on a Saturday morning.

Genuinely not fussed - I find it overly salty as a breakfast food. Don’t mind it in stuff e.g. in a pasta dish

Yes although the last time I had it almost put me off. It was streaky smoked which I usually love but it was a little undercooked & quite stringy - not good 😞

Love it but must be smoked and crispy.

I can't eat solid food. The only thing I miss is a crispy smoked bacon sandwich made with white bread and proper butter.

Am a vegetarian so not for me! Even when i did eat meat I thought it was overrated. Smells better than it tastes.

All processed pork is kind of disgusting when you really think about it 🤢

Unsmoked streaky and very crisp

and continuing the theme... Is the Pope a Catholic?

Of course I like bacon. Don't mind smoked or not. Just can't be doing with fat on meat though, so none of that streaky nonsense.

Yes 🥓

Like the smell but not the taste.

Yes.

Yes. Yes I do. Esp. thick cut Danish unsmoked green back bacon like you can get in the UK.

Banana have you tried Bacon nach englischer Art from Edeka?

God yes. farm shop near us does rare breed, home reared black treacle bacon. it is like nothing i've ever tasted before.

Yessssss

Yes.

Yes!

But I only like it with the fat all cut off which means it’s a big old fuss and I use most of the pack just for me so I don’t bother cooking it very often.

Yes. But only the good stuff. I'd sooner go without than eat the cheap stuff. And it's got to be a little bit crispy.

And I like the crackling. Our high street butcher does proper bacon. With rind. Cured locally.

Yes, but only if it’s unsmoked and crispy.
