A Riddle:
With me you can fry or bake,
Cook me in a pan and I sound like a rattlesnake.
I’m marbled in fat and sliced thick or thin,
Eat plenty of me and you’ll have more than one chin.
You can try me in the microwave, but I’ll turn out quite limp,
If you eat me a lot, you’ll look like a blimp.
Some people make me from turkey, but I think they must be joking,
Because when they cook me, in fat I won’t be soaking.
What am I?

BACON!
When writing for this blog, I often do a lot of searching for pictures to include to not only titalize your intellectual side with my writing, but also to tickle your visual cortex.
I also use the internet as an aid when creating the content of this blog. Often, when diving into the fat laden underbelly of the internet, I find a recurring theme: Fat people love bacon.
They talk about it a lot. It’s like crack to them. It goes with everything, apparently. To an unhealthy fat person, bacon is the meat condiment for meat.
On that note, I’ve decided to do a series dedicated to fat people’s love for bacon. At least once a week, I will post either someones odd use of it in a food dish, or just a new and inventive way to prepare bacon itself.
To start this series off, I give you this video:
Notice every single person eating at this restaurant is obese, including the owner. These are the types of fat people that about 80% of their diet is meat. I wonder if they defecate more than twice a month.
This is my favorite quote from the restaurant owner:
Ya know, what IS good for ya? It’s yur own body can tell what’s good for ya.”
Wow. How does your body tell you that deep fried bacon is good for you? By making your gut hang over your belt about 8 inches?
HAHA.. absolutely love this post and the video. I wonder how many calories one plate of chicken fried bacon has!!!!! Isn’t bacon one of the most salty meats out there? I love how that one women adds even more salt to it! Gotta love them crazy, fat Texans!!!!
And if you’re not in the mood for bacon (Is that possible?), you could go for the deep fried pizza – http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=tbEjSI6JmWY&feature=related
For dessert you could have the deep fried Mars bar – http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=1zfFjcgu8MM
or deep fried ice cream – http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=Dq49KShFy6M&feature=related
To wash it all down – Deep fried Pepsi – http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=fTAOBQmFdNk
And then to top it all off,
A nice ride to the hospital to roto-rooter out those arteries.
I still like bacon
Good stuff. Thanks DR! I would be willing to try the pizza and the Pepsi balls.
As Homer Simpson would say….

Great post
Haha! Nice
I love the shot of the old guy drinking coffee, smoking, and eating some chicken fried bacon strips. Nothing goes well with fried food like a big ol’ bowl of gravy. If they could just find a way to put the gravy in the bacon… it’s so hard to eat gravy while on the go. Maybe put gravy in those things Otterpops & GoGurt come in. Mmmm bacon and gravy.
Wow. Watching this made me want to throw up a little.
Whoops, too late.
I can’t believe that woman wanted more salt. Would she also like a side order of hypertension with that salt?
Chicken Fried Bacon is a nice idea, but a little pedestrian. I wish he could have classed it up a bit. Bacon a la’orange perhaps.
You know what would have been better than gravy? Maybe a side of funnel cake. Mmmmmm.
Plovdiv says : I absolutely agree with this !
Somehow i missed the point. Probably lost in translation
Anyway … nice blog to visit.
cheers, Ruwenzori

[...] abuse. I don’t need to drink or smoke, but I do need to eat. I just don’t need to eat bacon and Bagel-fuls. or processed foods. or high fructose corn syrup. or Big Macs. or Beefaroni. or [...]
In the food section of my local paper last week, they did a bit on fair food. I would not have believed it if there wasn’t a photo–chocolate covered bacon! I very nearly barfed.
Yes, let’s totally ignore the fact that most of the foods are FRIED and let’s just attack the meat.
Good idea…
Well, Christine, I think the fact that the foods were fried is pretty obvious, and I would not say that it was ignored.
I don’t think that I was JUST focusing on the fact that they eat a lot of meat, although I would have no problem attacking that fact.
There is no healthy diet in which meat is a big part of it.
you’re an idiot.
