They're Doing WHAT W/Bacon? Kinda Cool But Still Going Vegan..

Slowly moving into a vegan lifestyle, I feel a plant-based diet is not only the healthiest, but the best way to go. Before my change in palettery preferences emerged, the meat I used to love above all others was my friend BACON. Eggs-over-easy with who? BACON. Breakfast BLT with soft cooked what? You guessed it.

BA-to-the-CON.

Bacon bits in my salad. REAL bacon not that Bacos stuff they used to serve at Sizzler. As a kid watching our Saturday morning cartoons, the smell of bacon filled our house while AquaMan summonsed the sea-creatures. I remember once I cooked a whole pack of bacon as a snack for a Golden Girls marathon. Who needs popcorn when you can have fried fat?

Happily, those days are long behind me. All but one of the Golden Girls is dead, and in the spirit of maturity, I've chosen to eat healthier.

Recently I came across this article about bacon, and decided to post in the blog because it wasn't all about eating bacon. Apparently there are other things that can be done with it. Who knew my ole' bakey could be so resourceful? I made this post for old times sake. Kindof a tribute to my old friend. Despite it being banished from my diet, I've learned there's more than one way to skin a pig..

But fortunately, I'm done.

And I still won't eat Bacos.

Bye Bacon. Thanks for the good times!
