It may not cure my SO of his vegetarianism, but it’ll definitely cure me of any healthy levels of cholesterol I might have left. I’ll try that out this weekend 🙂

If you have any left I’d be happy to take some off your hands! I feel like making pasta salad, and bacon makes pasta salad better. Bacon makes everything better, what am I saying? 🙂

I have some fresh snap beans and little red potatoes that I’d gladly share if I were to have some bacon to season them with. Also, some fresh tomatoes from the farmers’ market for BLTs…if only I had the “B”.

A dozen pounds? Thats an awfully small truck - perhaps a Tonka.

But hey, a dozen pounds is 11.9 pounds more than I have at the moment…

I know who else likes bacon. Try Harley Morenstein and the guys of EpicMealTime. Just make sure to have some Jack Daniels to go with that bacon.

Real bacon? _blink_ I’ve been eating maize meal, kale, and peanut butter for a year and a half. May I have a tiny scrap if you have any left? Can you throw far?
