I love bacon but no longer eat it since I had a heart attack eight years ago. I used to make BLTs for hubby but it is too darn expensive anymore. Easiest way to cook bacon though is in the micro zapper.

We nuke it as well and the wife and I have a BLT for dinner at least once a month.

Well, turkey bacon first off...
or turkey pastrami
or venison bacon...

Depends...

At camp, grilled on a wire screen - *favorite*
For breakfast I like it pan fried in butter, along with the eggs (over easy)
Sammiches and burgers, breakfast sammiches and burritos, I prefer the texture from the nuke.

Wife has gone soft on me, she now buys the pre-cooked stuff in a big bag, nukes it a few seconds in paper towels and serves it to everyone but me .... except on rare rare occasions. The ole gout keeps my wanna-be-greasy fingers away for the most part.

Turkey bacon is good. So is bacon bacon.

I have a BLT about every two months at a diner, as a treat.

And I have it in a Cobb salad

You really have to look for the good stuff... Not all turkey bacon is equal. Most folks get no further than Jenny-O, which is really pretty mediocre. My favorite comes from Albertson's Signature series, though the three or four pack from the Costco ain't bad. Wallyworld sometimes has an uncured thick turkey bacon that I like pretty much too.

I don't see much pig anymore. It's been years since I had pork bacon. The only pig I eat is from the italian sausage on store bought or delivered pizza... And as I get better at making pizza at home, that will go away too, as there are very good turkey based italian sausages.

BLTs depend on if I have bacon thawed out. If I have bacon I love BLTs, and have one every time I can... But I tend to hot breakfast sausage rather than bacon, so having bacon around is a little intermittent.

You should try a BLT using turkey pastrami (fried up). Awesome.

Ok, I’m up. And craving bacon and eggs!

I see a trip to the grocery store in my future. Here’s hoping bacon hasn’t gone up too much in price

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Ever since the studies came out about Nitrosomines I stopped microwaving it because it cooks at too high a temperature.  Now it's fry or bake.  Or get it precooked.
