Bacon: Main Dish vs. Accessory

There I was at one of the breakfast joints I like to regular here in Lansing. I order my breakfast, and as a side I ordered a few strips of bacon.

Wonderful choice. Wonderful.

I haven't had straight up bacon in a while just by itself, not mixed in something, and then it hit me... In the battle of bacon by itself versus mixed in something else in one variation or another, who wins? Comment Below!

(Note: this is the perfect, epic fight of all time, because at the end, there is only one winner: bacon.)






As an added bonus, I have found these ridiculous photos of bacon on the Internet:

  1. I love bacon in omelet. I guess I must say bacon + something else...

  2. bacon as a pizza topping provides bacon flavor and bacon texture. but so does bacon by itself. i've talked myself in to a corner.

  3. Bacon is good with anything. Even human blood.

  4. It depends on the bacon. Cheap bacon alone is like drinking grease and getting a couple of chunks of bacon-like pulp. Real bacon, from a real pig, grown on a local farm, however, is amazing and should be eaten as a main dish. Of course, a BLT also qualifies as bacon as the main dish, even if it is a part of something else. Conundrums...

  5. this post is heating up quick!
    Another input... let's see... As we discussed before at Happy Hour, bacon texture is important. Flacid or Crispy.

    I like a much more Crispy bacon to solely munch on, while leaning towards flacid for my above omelet filling =)

  6. When I say the main dish, I mean straight up grab a strip of bacon and eat it alone. Am I happier doing that to enjoy bacon, or am I happier say... wrapping a steak in it... or.... bacon on a burger....

  8. I have to say, I enjoy bacon as a dish by itself. Luckily, this doesn't happen too often or else I would be dead instead of posting this on the internet. I'm also with David - my bacon needs to be extra-crispy.
