Leave my !&$*@*# breakfast alone!

[Mr Greene]

The official standard of a serving is 15g, which typically for bureaucratic standards is about 1 and a bit rashers...
In reality 2 or 3 rashers is normal (here at least)...

If the Surgeon General ever showed up here for breakfast you might see a reenacted scene from the movie "Scanners".

If the bacon consumption didn't cause a spontaneous skull explosion - the butter would.

I personally eat 3 or sometimes 4 strips (AKA "rashers") at breakfast (when I do- I eat bacon maybe twice a month, as I'm supposed to be a good boy and limit my intake of saturated fat). Then I see info about the Atkins diet and go have a couple more strips.

I don't cook up anything less than the "Mega" pack of bacon when I cook. Why bother.

We often cook a whole package of bacon and put part of it in the fridge for sandwiches or to break up in an omelet the next day.

Bacon is a pain in the ass to cook so I prefer to just do a whole pack and be done with it.

This.

However I've been leaning toward the ready-cooked stuff lately. I don't have much joy dealing with splatters these days.

BTW, if you don't already know you can snip the edges that bulge (pucker) with kitchen scissors and it will lay flat.

Fyi - the best way to cook bacon isvto deep fry it.


Second best is on a tray in the oven....

I have done the bake in the oven method...takes some monitoring but much less splatter.

Of course, then the fat rendered off is put in a container for use later frying eggs or potatoes.  Yummmmm.

I cut the strips in half if I am going to fry it.  Doesn't curl that way.

Bacon - like toes - is supposed to curl - if you're doing it right.....
