3. Bacon (MEAT & FISH*)

I will never be a vegetarian, if we are to pretend that such things exist, for one simple reason: I could never rob myself of the chance to enjoy the most delicious food in the world. Indeed, bacon seems to be the hardest meat to give up, and the thing most likely to lure vegetarians back to civilisation. The smell is like man-nip. The appearance, whether it's fleshy pink back bacon, verging on cannibalism, or ruddy rippling streaky bacon with its trim of crispy fat, is always mouth-watering. But the taste! If God exists, he is made of bacon. I do not believe that there has ever been a single moment of a single day when I have not wanted bacon.

If God is made of bacon, how come those nasty little white things they give out at Mass are so tasteless? Really, if communion wafers were bacon the world would be Catholic.

What wine goes best with Bacon? We're on a quest here.

I found your journal from a friend's.

I am a vegetarian, and I'm kosher. If I were ever to go back to eating meat, it wouldn't be because of bacon. Not my fave. Never was, never will be.

By the bye, human flesh, when offered for consumption, is known as "long pork" and sometimes I wonder if the supposed similarities in taste are what caused the early Hebrews to ban pork. Or, conversely, if God is made of bacon, that might be the reason Jews are forbidden bacon. (bemused grin)
