Same goes for bacon, Scotch, and television.

. . . Though, of course, that all depends on who "the next guy" is.

Well, that cancels out the bacon. Everyone knows that.

Sure. But I like my hackneyed expressions as much as the next guy, too.

Mmmmm, fishhead bacon!

Its all been said, and well. I can only add that if you were to take the advice of these medical nutritionists and other dietary experts theres a good chance you would starve to death...or worry yourself to a hart condition. Its all about education, balance and moderation... Most of us know this.
I really would be pleased if these little bureaucratic fools would just stay out of my life.

Yes that is me in my avatar

What do you mean by "more of you than previously"

Just what I wrote, nothing more, nothing less.

Ah, it's time for some country-cured Virginia bacon, followed/combined with some eggs scrambled with chipotle sauce.

With a side of sawmill gravy on biscuits.

Yum!

Biscuits here in the UK are what you call cookies

Interesting that the story never explains exactly how the conclusion was reached that bacon causes cancer. The closest mention is "EATING any processed meat like pork sausages, bacon and ham...significantly boosts the risk of bowel cancer..." The article then goes on with the usual maintain a moderate weight, exercise, etc tips. So why was bacon singled out to be the bane of modern (at least British) society du jour?
