There was a period of time.... mostly during the '90s, that bacon was taboo. Bacon was John Rocker walking around Harlem, it was and still probably is the worst thing you can ingest into your body that is considered food. It's basically salty fat.... but damn it if it doesn't taste good.
I've noticed it has been making a comeback, it's on the dollar menus, it's becoming more sociably acceptable. Maybe it was that creepy Atkins Diet where people had to eat a pound a day that they remembered their love affair.
I probably went years without bacon and substituted my cravings with Turkey bacon or something else repulsive. Now it's made in my house twice a month. The aroma of cooking bacon is intoxicating, it almost feels naughty to an extent to savor the golden goodness.
I only type this because I am craving a Wendy's bacon deluxe burger and my will power is weakening.
Oh how I love bacon
