I guess I could say the word chocolate, too.
Bacon is one of those foods that seems to illicit emotion in just about everyone. Either you LOVE bacon or you think it is the poster child for poor eating. Who doesn’t see a “ode to bacon” meme at least once a week? Or hear about how you need to cut it out of your diet from just about every conventional article on health.
I could post several articles on why bacon isn’t the demon it’s made out to be or why turkey bacon isn’t necessarily better for you, but bacon is what it is and you can’t deny it TASTES GOOD. Why else would even your most strict vegan still want to make food that reminds them of bacon?
This is my recipe for Bacon Trail Mix, whether you use the real thing or a alternative version that makes you happy. Because well, bacon is love.
