W2R, there may be a possible problem in your future. I believe there's a law on the books in the great state of Missouri that
requires the use and consumption of bacon!
Since old habits are hard to break, all of my relatives on my Dad's side of the family that either live in or
have lived in MO, use bacon very religiously in meal preparation. BTW, almost all of them have lived fairly long lives.......mid to late 70's, all the way up to the late 90's. And not even one of them ever died from clogged arteries or other related diseases! I think it has something to do with the bacon grease lubing the inside of the arteries and veins to keep the blood slidin' right on through.
