Why Is Bacon So Popular?

I mean, it's tasty, but why do so many people on the internet seem obsessed with it?
It's just an unhealthy meat product with lots of sodium and cholesterol.

And Canada, why do you lie? Your bacon isn't bacon, it's sliced ham. Stop it.

Bacon is the third most overrated thing in the universe, right behind sex and beer

If you made that up, you are a really enlightened dude.

It's been a busy year

I don't know, probably some dude got stoned and dribbled chocolate on it and died instantly.

To humans?
Because of its valuable oxygen content.

It's crunchy, salty, and fatty. What's not to like?

Not my favorite kind of meat though, I'd still opt for corned beef.

Can we both agree that corned beef hash is better than crack?

Sriracha sauce is sitting pretty at number four.

[NuclearInfected]

Because it goes good with a lot of different goods. Plus it's really not as bad for you as you'd think.

[nanocon]

well people obbsess because 1 it is the most delecios part of the pig infact ill bet you cant name 1 person who eats pig that dousent like bacon 2. when vegetarians nag that eating meat is wrong it annoys them so the start obbsessing to rub it in there faces and since becons liked by all its a great thing to use to irritate the preachy guys who cant exept people eat meat .

ps i have nothing agenst the vegetarians and vegans who dont do the nagging thing about meat just the ones who do nag there aren't many any more but still some

[YellowisCOOL]

Bacon is fucking amazing. That's why it's popular

[angrybirds2000]

because when you really start to get into it after 3 pieces, the whole package is usually gone

[Sense-Offender]

agreed. Good, but way overrated.

Pork chops, ribs, ham and puerco/cochinita pibil are all better than bacon. Bacon still beats hot dogs, though. And pig's feet and pork rinds are just awful.

[GrizzlyOne]

Pork rinds aren't awful, the ones with hot sauce are an amazing snack.

I think pork tenderloin smoked is the best though.

[Jay]

I like bacon, but it's nothing without the rest of the other breakfast foods. I'd need it to come with eggs, pancakes, hash browns, etc. And preferably a glass of milk.

I think they're gross, and there are very very few foods that I completely dislike.

[GrizzlyOne]

I hate ham, every ham meat I've eaten is usually hard (not crunchy) and bland, and the lean meat version of it that goes on sandwiches is really bland to me.

[Me-Patch]

"Bacon mania" reminds me of this mentally challenged guy who lived on the street I grew up on. He would ask me what I had for breakfast every time he saw me because it was a topic of conversation that he was capable of participating in.

Bland ham? It's usually got a pretty strong salty flavor. And I can't imagine having an omelet without lots of ham chunks in it. I love a good glazed roasted ham for Christmas dinner. Great with mustard. Ham and egg sandwiches are great, too. Or chicken cordon bleu stuffed with ham. And ham coldcuts make a good ingredient for subs.

[BumFodder]

Why doesnt america have back bacon? Its the only type of bacon worth eating and they dont even have it, whats the point of an epic meme like this if you eat shit.

[TailsPrower]

I was never crazy on bacon either. I don't like eating it alone so I gotta have em on a sandwich or burger or something else with more substance. I don't get it either, Plank.

[somespammer224]

Because it has a wikipedia page, why the hell else?

Indeed.

Corned beef all the fucking way.

Screw your overrated bacon.

I hate having to see that 5-letter word everywhere on every meal that's supposedly better just because it has bacon on it.

C'mon.

STOP IT, SOCIETY.

The fact that it tastes really meh and that there are tons of different kinds of meat that blow bacon out of the water?

[PanzerKorpse]

I can never get my bacon the way I want it, its like theres a secret balance of crispy and soft that must be mastered to taste bacon right.
