It's a terrible affliction. Fortunately, there is a cure - bacon.
As a (mostly) vegetarian, I guffawed at your comment.
Bacon is fucking delicious. Which makes it tempting to forget how smart and loving pigs can be.
But I think it's better to remember. And I certainly try. And the more I remember, the easier it is to chose.
Not to eat animals.
Fortunately fruit is abundant. Mushrooms are probably my favorite fruit.
Fry pink oyster mushrooms in avocado oil with brown sugar and soy sauce. Tastes like maple bacon. Salt, sugar, crispy texture, umami from the soy and mushrooms.
Bacon from fungi fruit. No one gets murdered.
Substituting brown sugar with liquid smoke (go easy it tastes fake if you use to much).. Deglaze with a teaspoon or so of apple cider vinegar, you have apple smoked bacon.
Maybe I'll teach a cooking class sometime. We'll see.
Do... do you really think US born vegetarians who became one later in life didn't eat any bacon before becoming vegetarians? I was fed meat every day.
So the disease took hold later in life? That's tragic. Thank you for bravely sharing your story. I'm going to go eat a veal cutlet in your honor. Tomorrow morning I'll eat a piece of bacon for each downvote I've gotten. I'm doing my part to fight this thing.
As another person who eats meat, man you're fucking terrible
JustAManOnAToilet thinks it’s a clever troll, but its just a lonely asshole.
You're at 15 so far idiot. Go for 30. Post pics.
ok, I won't think of you at all after clicking reply. Think of me.
Cheers to your health, you're gonna need it
I want to downvote you so you get to have more bacon. Because...well ..bacon. 🥓
A bacon joke? What is this 2012 reddit!
Not everything is or needs to be a joke, deceptichum!
