Perhaps that's why they are all so angry over there?

Quick! Fly some into the Middle East!

I have... news. Good news or bad news depends on your perspective.

OK, it's good news.

Bacon is available in the M.E. Discreetly. Very effing discreetly.

But it's there - at least in the more progressive cities.

Not everywhere. No no, that wouldn't do. Mustn't upset people.

But rest assured, I had an excellent bacon cheeseburger in Dubai very recently. While drinking a beer, no less.

Otherwise, you're stuck with a beef equivalent, which of course will be halal. It's an acquired taste for sure, but "sausage biscuits" are actually not too bad, especially if you judge it on it's own, non-bacon merits.

California Burger Joint Unleashes 100 Percent Bacon Burger

Slaters-100-percent-bacon-burger.png

Slater’s 50/50 in California can probably hold the title for making the hamburger with the most bacon, considering their new burger is exactly that–100 percent bacon.

While it seemed that Burger King’s bacon sundae was the ultimate treat for bacon lovers everywhere, it seems that even it ant Wendy’s baconator can’t even top the 3-location chain’s latest creation, according to Yahoo News.

The restaurant has seemingly come up with the ultimate burger for bacon lovers everywhere, titled “The ‘merica” burger. Food Beast reports that the behemoth burger features a patty made up of 100% ground bacon, and is topped with a slice of thick cut bacon (as if the patty wasn’t enough), a sunny side up egg, their new “bacon island” dressing (yes, even more bacon!), and a heavy slice of bacon cheddar cheese, prompting questions on if Slater’s may be a little too preoccupied with the high in fat pig meat.

With the option of bacon on bacon on bacon…on bacon, it seems like Slater’s 50/50 has finally topped their 50/50 ground beef bacon blend patty. Yahoo News notes that if you want a taste of the action, however, you’ll have to head their way soon, because The ‘merica burger is only available for a limited time.

If your budget doesn’t allow you to take a road trip to California anytime soon, rest assured that Slater’s 50/50 will have other bacon treats waiting for you when you get there, like bacon brownies and the Bakon Mary, a twist on the Bloody Mary that includes bacon-infused vodka, a rim of bacon salt, and a slice of thick cut bacon to garnish.

I cooked the best bacon I've literally ever tasted today.

Recipe:

bacon
minced garlic
crushed red pepper

spread the garlic and red pepper over the bacon while it cooks.

Enjoy.

The last I checked, a granola bar has maybe 3-4 grams of fat. It's a lot less than bacon and they are better for you.

Check out the nutrition content on a package of pre-cooked bacon. The information on raw is for raw, and most of the fat drains out.

3 slices of precooked bacon... 70 calories, 6 grams of fat
Nature Valley granola bar... 190 calories, 6 grams of fat and a lot of carbs

Bacon is healthy for you anyway. The whole saturated fat is bad for you is a myth that needs to die

This week I had bacon wrapped frog's legs and popcorn popped in bacon grease with bits of bacon. Tasty popcorn.
