Nice breakfast bacon; no time for a full review.  Roundy's Mariano's supermarket is the Wegmans of Chicagoland!

Stoic Bacon 6. Initiated

MY LIFE WITH BACON  continues! February 26, 2013 was the date of my first post in this blog. Ten years ago this past February. Time flies! During that time I've reviewed lots of different bacons from around the country, visited numerous bacon-fests, gave a presentation at Zingerman's Camp Bacon, and reported on many crimes involving bacon. Bacon will continue to be the theme here, but with the addition of Health & Fitness , as well as  sprinklings of Stoic Philosophy throughout my posts. And of course, I will report on crimes involving bacon. TODAY'S CRIME STORY . This one is pretty dumb. A 'career' criminal (anyone with more than three or four convictions for theft qualifies) gets arrested for stealing 'multiple packs of bacon' is currently held on a $10,000 bond in the Wichita County Jail. If this were Chicago, San Francisco, or LA, I don't think she'd even be arrested. It's interesting how criminal behaviors are enforced and treated diffe...

  MY LIFE WITH BACON: The Great Bacon Awakening of 2024-2025 A Long Overdue Update After Nearly Two Years of Bacon Silence MY LIFE WITH BACON continues after what can only be described as an EPIC hiatus! Here I am, writing to you on June 27, 2025, and I realize it's been over a year and a half since my last substantial post back in November 2023. Time really does fly when you're... well, when you're apparently NOT blogging about bacon. But fear not, my fellow bacon enthusiasts, because the bacon world has been ANYTHING but quiet during my absence. I've been getting emails, messages, and even the occasional concerned phone call asking, "Where's the bacon content?" and "Have you given up on bacon?" The answer is a resounding NO! If anything, my love affair with bacon has only deepened, and the industry itself has undergone some absolutely MIND-BLOWING changes that I simply MUST share with you. So grab your favorite bacon-scented candle (yes, they ...

Summer 2017: My Full Presentation from Camp Bacon!

Image
MY LIFE WITH BACON CONTINUES with the full presentation I gave at Zingerman's Camp Bacon. This is mostly self-explanatory, but I've added a little text to help you. If you want to invite me to a BaconFest to present this, I'm happy to do so! First, a photo of Debbie and I with Ari Weinzweig , founder of Zingerman's deli in Ann Arbor, with Jordan, one of Ari's co-workers. Scroll down for a really funny video of a crime involving bacon. Yes, my presentation was indeed about bacon-related crimes and incidents. Burned bacon is extremely unhealthy. Don't do it. There are a lot of chemicals in bacon, most are good for you. In fact, bacon is extremely low on the insulin index. Nitrates and nitrites are not bad (many studies have proven), but Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons are truly bad news. So don't overcook your bacon. Every hear of Di-Hydrogen Oxide?  But PAHs are truly bad. There is actually a parody site ab...
