    A pig died so that she could boil a part of it into shoe leather. Then you had to eat it. The things we do for sex…

    I hope you call your girlfriend BB from now on. Not because it is a bastardization of “Baby” but because it is short for boiled bacon.

    Frying both the egg and bacon would probably use much less energy and be 100 times more tasty than whatever this is… If I have to boil bacon, I might as well not eat it at all… 😅

      This gave me a sudden flash of Uncle Roger. If you boil bacon, bacon is fuckt up. Aya!

    My brain is now forever tainted with the idea that you can, and some people do, boil bacon.

      If you put a little water in the pan with cold bacon it will steam for a bit and help render out the fat before it then deep-fries in that fat. To much water and you get whatever this is.

        Y’all’ve seriously never tried grilling your bacon in the oven? The fat just melts off and leaves your bacon perfect. If you like it crispy, just leave it in for a bit longer.

        Not even. You can totally submerge the bacon in a pan full of water. As you say, the fat renders out and you then fry it in that fat when the water all boils off.

        This is literally just boiling it and taking it out of the water like it’s fucking spaghetti or something.

        Fried bacon fat is amazing…

        There is only one true way to cook bacon and it’s in a CI pan and in it’s own grease.

          In the oven is superior. You get an even cook and the rendered fat can be saved in the fridge for cooking later without all the charred bits that you get in a cast iron skillet.

        I just fry my eggs in the bacon grease, same energy, probably not as healthy but it doesn’t look like a crime scene either.

        You’re saving 2c and wasting bacon… If you want to boil everything maybe pick foods that aren’t depressing when boiled.

    I’d be grateful to have anyone in my life that would think to cook for me. I’d eat this without complaint and thank them.

    Then, I’d offer to teach them to cook. We aren’t born knowing how, it’s a learned skill.
