What's your honest opinion of bacon?
It's pretty good, has it's place, and don't really care about what people who get influenced by internet opinions think about things I've had the same opinion about since before the internet was a thing.
meme
Nice as a flavour base in a stew or in salads. Smoked is best, and alcase smoked is best of that. Otherwise meh
It's overrated.

Thick cut peppered bacon is a Godsend
Few slices of that with some lettuce and fried green tomatoes and some zesty mayo on a toasted bun, too great
Hell, even by itself it's one of my favorite pieces of pork
I like it, it tastes real good when combined with weaker tasting, more substantial foods
it tastes good

I'm a long time /ck/ poster and a longer time "channer", I'm going to be honest with you. I find bacon revolting. I used to love it, used to put it on everything, used to post about it on /b/, those were the days.
Then we noticed other people liked it too. It had to stop. Those faggots on Epic Meal Time were the final straw, though they were kinda funny before they got noticed by everyone else. It was no longer an insider thing. Now I see bacon and I am DISGUSTED. I think of Gaia I think of Reddit, tumblr, youtuber egofaggots, all those disgusting people that probably get in a big circlejerk and pretend to love bacon vbecause it's so cool now. I'm not sure I never go there, the thought of them makes me retch I'm certain that's what is going on though.
I pick it out of salads, I pick it out of burgers, bacon is for poser gaia shitters. Bacon is dead.
It's probably the fifth best part of a pig. I'd say the third best use of pork belly. Also, it tastes good.

Too much table salt. I suppose there are patrician brands that are cured with genuine rock salt.
as white trash, i like bacon grease more than the meat
>>7510078
10/10. Gimme some bitch.
Love using the grease + sliced fresh jalapeno to make refried beans
You tell me

>tfw hungry but your ass has been leaking for hours

I like it but I realize now that it's been a long time since I last ate some.
Thanks for reminding me, OP.

You mean you don't have separate cutting boards for your meat and veggies? Oh anon... poor, poor anon...
>>7510078
It's good, but faggots overhype it and ruin it by doing bacon everything.

This meme needs to die.
Bacon by itself is okay.
Using bacon for its grease and flavoring is better.
Wrapping things with bacon deserves a sentence to the gulag, apart from very lean meats in certain circumstances, such as tenderloin.
It really isn't that great. I hardly ever pay the extra 1-2 dollars for a bacon cheeseburger over a plain cheeseburger.
On that note, bacon that you don't cook yourself is almost always 90% of the time complete shit. Soggy, shrivelled, stringy, flavorless and skimpy.
That being said, I use bacon as a source of fat for several of my dishes and I quite enjoy it. It just shouldn't be forced into ever damned meal.
>>7510078
It's good, but people rarely cook it properly for whatever they're serving it with.
Bacon is manna from heaven.

Except goat cheese

Faggots like you are the ones who need to die.

Bacon wrapped jalapenos stuffed with garlic herb goat cheese.
Fucking delicious.
I foolishly tried adding chilli to bacon for breakfast this morning. not good at all.

You know, I'll have to agree with you here anon. Whenever I order something with bacon at a restaurant, the bacon is either as chewy as bubblegum or charred to a crisp. Homemade bacon is the best.
>>7510132
This bacon looks delicious!
>fried green tomatoes
you in MD too, anon?

hnnnngggg oh man that sounds great

Bacon wrapped tenderloin? Some good shit right there
>>7512463
>the meat jew
guess who doesn't eat bacon
>>7510078
It ok by itself, but can be a game changer when combined with other things/dishes.
>>7510078
Love it as an option to use to make some foods taste even better. Especially in cooked greens like pic related.
>>7510078
this is bacon you dumb yanks
>>7510078
Bacon is delicious.
Those strips of fat you yanks eat are kinda shitty though.
I love it but I don't like it combined with any other meats
I eat bacon everyday for the past 3 years. So is it good yes it is very good. I have never gotten bored of bacon.
>>7513228
I wonder if Southerners get a chuckle from dumb foreigners calling them Yanks.
