Before I sound too "health freak" I will admit that I like bacon too. I will only buy the center cut kind (probably makes little difference). I am too lazy to figure out grams of fat so I just eat oatmeal instead. I will probably have a really healthy heart and keel over from a hepatitis A or ecoli infection due to all of the salsa and chips I eat. Remember that tomato scare? Salsa can be dangerous to your health!Beth's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07911299424747643893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3377118040983857514.post-24521153145830532882008-09-03T15:27:00.000-05:002008-09-03T15:27:00.000-05:00Beth, it's worth noting that we are a cardiac unit...Beth, it's worth noting that we are a cardiac unit sort of family - one death, 2 by-pass, and a heart attack in the past 5 years. All that being said, we each had a scoop to taste so moderation was the name. In truth, the ice cream was the dangerous part. Bacon has a bad reputation since we think of all that rendered fat when we cook it. It has about 1 gram of sat fat for every 8 grams of bacon so they probably ended up with a third of a gram in bacon sat fat, which as we know means zero sat fat in USDA terms.Andy Egizi, Program Coordinatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16037864852115826757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3377118040983857514.post-17967432407593504782008-09-03T11:11:00.000-05:002008-09-03T11:11:00.000-05:00Hi Andy, I am confused about my anonymous post.

(Don't really eat hot dogs because I've heard they cause brain tumors), my other concern is that given the generous helping of saturated fat in ice cream, adding bacon is like begging for an angioplasty. I will visit you in the cardiac unit and tell your doctor that it all started at a picnic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3377118040983857514.post-42560140678974860072008-09-02T19:54:00.000-05:002008-09-02T19:54:00.000-05:00Candied bacon?

While it sounds delicious, I wish I could try your 'baconator' recipes, but unfortunately I'm a partial vegetarian who doesn't eat pork, beef, or any other type of meat other than poultry and seafood. I'm sure those dishes were deliciously yummy, though. Keep up the good work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
