Bacon is overrated (yiffit.net)

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.

I like syrup on pancakes, and maple candied bacon can be yummy if it's not overly sweet. But for some reason I don't enjoy the maple frosting they put on donuts. It just has a weird artificial flavor to it.

Probably because it does have a weir artificial flavor added.

Yeah, that or they use shortening to make it shelf-stable, which always tastes like chemicals to me.

Speaking of shelf stable bakery products, I haven't eaten there in years, but I never felt well after eating subway. I blame the bread.
