Uh-oh. Durianrider will be ecstatic about this.

Eating bacon increases the chance of pancreatice cancer by 19%. 38% if you eat 100g per day.

Seeing as how pretty much every hamburger you buy in the U.S. has bacon added to it, the country is screwed.

I ain't eat nothin' that ain't got sense enough to disregard its own feces.

As they say, anything that doesn't kill you only makes you stronger :D

Bacon is the nectar of the ghods. I'll leave the ghod picking to you's.

Won't stop fat Americans - who comprise like 75% of the population now? - from making daily trips to Wendy's. Triple bacon cheeseburger with extra mayo coming up. Extra large fries and a diet coke.

I eat bacon about once a week, and just about every gravel race or century ride I have a bag of cut up bacon in my jersey pocket. :)

If you cut out all the crap out of your diet that has been linked to an increased risk of cancer, you would be left eating lemon juice and tree bark. Whatever happened to moderation? Have bacon a few times a month, be happy. You're going to die no matter what you abstain from.

I see your Baconator and raise you some deep fried cheese on a stick:

That does not look as good as the Cheesapeenos I had the other day. Cheesapeenos are chopped jalapeno peppers mixed with cheese then breaded and deep fried. Luckily jalapenos have not been proved to increase cancer. They would probably taste better with bacon added though.

LOL. If you need to eat pig fat in order to feel happy you have issues.

Whoa. It's true. Bacon is a condiment.

My first experience with this was at Paulie Gee's Pizzaria when my gal was still living in Brooklyn. I'm working on two jars at home since last Valentines Day.

Fries Quatro Quesos Dos Fritos

Obligatory reference to the Fries Cuatro Quesos Dos Fritos.

Lyin' Ryan: ...they inject potatoes with a four-cheese mixture, fry them three-quarters of the way, pull them out, batter them, fry them again, and then serve them with bacon and an ancho chile sour cream

Shawn Spencer: [in the observation room] Can it be true?
Burton 'Gus' Guster: No way.
Shawn Spencer: I mean, is it even possible?
Burton 'Gus' Guster: I couldn't imagine.
Shawn Spencer: There's no way you could prepare a fry like that. That'd be way too much for the... for the human palate to manage.
Burton 'Gus' Guster: It would be a flavor seizure.
Chief Karen Vick: Gentlemen, please? Don't be ridiculous.
Shawn Spencer: She's right. Let's just take a minute here to think things through.
[pause]
Shawn Spencer: They must be parboiling the potato first.
