OMG !!! im sure the skin tastes delicious though lol .
I have to confess I ate like five slices of VERY patted down and defatted bacon like three times this winter . Every time put like 1 1/2 lbs on me ...
I am so torn whether we really SHOULD have the freedon to eat stuff like this or NOT . is it HEALTHY ? could it be healthy for US and not others since many of us crave fat so much ?
What kind of fat consumption do YOU think works for YOU personally ? ( and allows you to maintain long term as opposed to dealing with creeping regain .. )

I'm not gonna chow down on the bacon-ensconced turbaconducken.
However, I confess to having brunch out almost every Saturday and having 2 eggs, 2 slices of very crispy bacon (so most of the fat is gone) and, on an especially good day, a piece of toast. And I don't feel guilty about it. In my "previous life", I would have had a huge omelet, plus bacon, plus sausage, plus a couple of pancakes and two slices of toast.

LOL! I never 'pat down' or 'defat' bacon, and I've eaten five+ slices three times THIS WEEK. You'll also be disgusted to know that last night, I ate most of the skin off a baked picnic ham.
This is the level of fat comsumption that works for me, and for most DSers. This amount of fat allows me to have regular bowel movements and a total cholesterol level of 112.
I've been draping my thanksgiving turkey in bacon since I made my 1st married T-day dinner ( did it the 1st time cuz of my DH, his mama always put bacon on the turkeym, keep doing it cuz its yummy)...Skin under the bacon is really flavorful and the bacon comes off supppper crispy from being in the oven so long...Sooo, I have to say looks good to me & I still eat it, just have to know to limit myself...

Makes my arteries feel like clogging up. And don't get me wrong- I love bacon- in moderation.

It looks absolutely disgusting!!! I hate bacon in or on things. I like BLTs and bacon alone. I want whatever I am eating to taste like whatever I am eating, not bacon, unless it is just bacon.
The idea of stuffing all of those birds inside each other is nauseating to me.
