Title: Describe How You Feel About Bacon?
Post by: snuggleycutejc on September 02, 2017, 06:46:49 am
Do you feel bacon is healthy or not? I like bacon. Proportion is important for me, because I can eat a ton. We have the Bacon Festival here. They're doing the bacon and beer thing oh I must do try. They have bacon festivals other times around International Bacon Day. So have a slice of bacon today. Ever had the bacon milkshake? Happy International Bacon Day! Have a gr8 day  :present:

I don't know if I would consider bacon healthy, but I do like to eat bacon with eggs or BLT.

If I only ate the things that were healthy for me, I would miss out on a lot of good stuff. I love bacon, so I just eat it in moderation.

I put bacon in a lot of recipes and I love the way it tastes. I have it about every 2 weeks though. Don't want too much of it

I absolutely and totally love bacon.  I buy the good stuff thick sliced - I could eat it every day but we don't - mostly because we don't have time to cook bacon every day lol but I do so love it.  As for the healthy my motto is "all things in moderation"

I love Bacon ... Don't eat it as much as I would like to but a good old BLT is awesome.

I would guess that bacon is not one of the foods I would call "healthy".
but in moderation, I eat anything.

BLTs are one of my favorite summer meals.

How I feel about bacon?!  H-m-m-m-m!  It certainly is not the most healthy food, but I surely do love me some pork, especially bacon.  Do I eat it all the time, "No!"--- but I don't stay away from it either.  Life is to some degree about enjoyment, and the older I get the fewer things to enjoy.  Eating is one of the things I can still enjoy so I am not going to limit myself too much.

Since I live alone, I cut the bacon into smaller amounts, and put it in the freezer in lil baggies.

Then I can have some here and there, and not waste any.

Love the smell, love the taste, Its rugged, hearty, and wonderful when I can make it. The kitchen smells soooo good.

I like it, but do not consider it healthy so only in moderation which for me  can be once a month at times: love it with eggs and grits!!!!

No, bacon isn't healthy but it tastes good. I eat it in moderation.

I don't eat mammals, so for me personally, I don't like it & my family doesn't eat it either at home.
 
It does smell good though when it is cooking AND I do cook it on occasion when my nieces & nephews stay over... they LOVE it.  One nephew could just live on bacon if he was allowed... lol

Tint pieces is best with Bacon in most to all cases. My opinion

Maybe in moderation it can be part of a healthy diet, but it is still a fatty, salty meat. Enjoy wisely.

Not to be too rude, but food is never healthy. The correct word in that context would be healthful. If bacon has too much saturated fat, I don't think it's so healthful. For those of you who have to know the difference between healthful and healthy, healthful means harmless towards one's health, and healthy means feeling well and not suffering from any symptoms of an illness.

I do love Bacon. I mainly use it for cheeseburgers, bake potatoes and as a BLT sandwich. I can also use it for other recipes like casserole.

Turkey bacon is so much cheaper. I have like 10 packages in my freezer. After sales and coupons, I got it all for free. But I prefer "real" bacon, not gonna lie.

I've never had a bacon milkshake. Sounds horrid. I do like Bacon - in moderation like everything else.  I'm not one to ask for bacon on burgers, breakfasts or much else.  I usually opt for sausage for some reason. When I do eat bacon I like it crispy.  When it's rubbery my senses disagree with it.

I love Pepper Bacon,  but I don't eat it very often.  It doesn't like me very well.  I really don't like bacon cooked in food. I can handle it on an egg sandwich but that is about it.

I am a little wary about the supposed health benefits of bacon. I continue to hear how turkey bacon is healthier than pork bacon, but I am skeptical about that. Most of the bacon I come into contact with is dripping with oil. Too much cholesterol for me, LOL.

I like Bacon especially the thick slices.  The thin ones are sliced too thin and you have the equivalent of a half piece of bacon.

I love bacon and its taste... but lately I have seen some ridiculous documentaries on how they make bacon.... it disgusted me so much that I am almost willing to give up regular bacon forever....

I am a foodie... so that's going to be really hard... but those documentaries....  :-X :confused1: :bad:

I love bacon.  It is one of my favorite breakfast foods.  I am not sure if it is healthy or not but I don't think it is bad for you if you eat it in moderation.

I think bacon is probably very bad for you, particularly if you eat a lot of it at once, but it tastes Oh So Good, you just have to have it sometimes. Like at breakfast with scrambled eggs, English muffins, and coffee or on bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwiches, or on a nice grilled burger. YUMMY!!! :silly: :silly:

It's delicious,
It's yummy,
It belongs
somewhere in my tummy.

Whether it's,
Unhealthy or not,
It's good cold,
It's also good hot.

Bacon is nothing short,
of being great,
Bacon belongs in my tummy,
And on my plate.

We eat bacon, but not often and only in moderation. Hubby has gout and of course it is one of the foods that he  is not suppose to have, but I figure a couple of slices every couple of  weeks is not going to hurt him. I buy it in bulk and then  repackage it into just 4 strips  a package. Hey I want some too.  Then just pull a pack of 4 slices  off and on.

I love bacon. I have it almost every morning for breakfast. It is one of the most wonderful things ever thought of. I don't know what life would be without it. I may or may not be getting a bot dramatic over bacon. But it's bacon, so it's something to get excited about. I love it so much.

I would be more than confused if anyone suggested that bacon is healthy.  Or anything other than extremely unhealthy.  I love bacon.  It's great.  I haven't had one bite in over four years and that streak is not likely to change anytime soon.

Bacon is not healthy for me. At this stage of my health, I am trying to eat healthy and stay away from getting addicted again to greasy and fatty foods. I hate to look at my self in the mirror because of my weight.

I don't think bacon is unhealthy for you. I think it gets a bad rap like all other fats.  :confused1:

Some fat is good for you, for Pete's sake. Fat makes things taste good.  :in-love:

Plus, I really enjoy eating bacon.
