    One day I will prepare bacon for you correctly and set you straight for good.

    I am going to guess you are into thicker cuts of bacon, yeah?! Those planks look like they belong on a BLT!

    [Nueske's] seems a pretty widely recognized name for kick ass bacon; perhaps this can be next on your list?!

    Turkey bacon is pretty great though! I don't care for pork bacon.

    Nope! I heard of it though. =O

    I'm curious about it. I'm ambivalent about turkey. I absolutely LOVE turkey as a cold cut on a sandwich, it's all I eat. But I hate dry Thanksgiving turkey. Does it taste like cold cut turkey?

    It is next on my list, actually. I have two pounds of their <a href="http://www.nueskes.com/peppered-bacon.aspx">peppered bacon</a> scheduled to come to me this week. Bacon Quest update coming soon.

    Danish bacon is actually really good. Just sayin'.


    I especially like bacon fried on a pan until it's all nice and crispy.

    Chewy is the way to be. The closer to raw the better.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    QFT. Crispy bacon is just bacon-flavored charcoal.

    To digress, we have sweet pastries here called Danish. Are they called Danish in Denmark?

    Glad to hear it is on the list, Necronopticous! It sounds delicious and well-spoken for, so I might even hunt down some if I can!

    I am picky about my meats usually, and I go with natural or organic foods more often than not; so the brand of bacon I can nab over at Whole Foods tends to be [Wellshire], which does not look very fancy online, but I have always enjoyed their bacon with the added benefit of less excess additives to my body! I have not looked critically at bacon for superior taste, though, so whether the brand holds up against your contenders is questionable!

    Haha, nope they're not. It depends on the kind of pastry, but they can e.g. be called "snegl", "wienerbrød", "kringle" etc.
