Bacon is overrated

I don't care for bacon, it doesn't have much flavor and is often just used for salt, or fat. I leave it out of almost all recipes that call for it and haven't missed it yet.

  • The crispy crunch is what I preferred to the actual taste of bacon. I've been trying to cook up sliced mushrooms for a similar texture, but I've been really unsuccessful in my attempts thus far. My omelettes have been woefully squishy ever since getting bacon out of my diet completely. Spicy pork sausage tho, I'll have to look a pig in the eyes to give that up.

    • I like almost all types of sausage. If you want crispy, try toasting some panko. You won't get any big pieces though.

      • Hey, I picked some up on a whim after remembering your suggestion and am now enjoying a pretty damn good omelet thanks to you. Cheers!

        • Assuming you're referring to the Panko, happy to hear it worked out. 🥚 🍳
