Some places will slap like a 1.4 in a bun and act like their job here is done, and you’re like wha

Are you a vegan or do you eat pigs alive?

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Which do you think is worse?

[–] Karl@literature.cafe 2 points 2 days ago

Hard choices

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago

Trichinosis is a bad time.

The other one doesn't eat bacon.

damn that's tough...

Seriously though, my wife got a vegan BLT at an artisanal brewery, they had tempeh bacon where they make their own. She stopped eating it because she was worried it was real bacon (she's just pro pig). I tried it and although the texture was only 80% it was by far the best vegan product i've ever had.

Call me nuts but I like the 4-5.5 range. I'm not a fan of chewy fat...

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

high five

Crispy through, no chewy but not carbonized.

"I said CARAMELIZED, damnit!"

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

side question

Have you had candied bacon?

I tried candied and chocolate covered candied, usually cooked to about 6.

I liked it, but after I ate it, I had no desire to have it again. It's the strangest thing.

[–] Railing5132@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Yeas, and same. :D

[–] socsa@piefed.social 22 points 4 days ago

This is the objectively correct answer.

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 2 points 2 days ago

I agree. I like a little crunch, and floppy bacon pulls the breakfast roll apart!

[–] ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 4 days ago (2 children)

My ex liked the 6-7 range while I like the 2-4 range. We were thus incompatible and broke up after the umpteenth time they made it “for me” the exact same way they did for themselves.

(The last bit is a joke, the first bit isn’t)

[–] Hazel@piefed.blahaj.zone 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

If your ex liked 6-7 they were clearly too young anyways.

I like my pigs how I like my sexual partners: Alive and well

[–] Ledivin@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

5 or 6, for sure. If you can't hold it horizontally without it flopping, it's not done enough, and if you can't hold it horizontally without it breaking from its own weight, it's too done.

[–] trublu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

4-6 is ideal range.

  1. I like mine atomized

It seems it self-heals a bit after #9 and reassembles back, so I would like to try that #10

Exactly what I was going to post.

I worked at a fast-food chain years ago and we had to cook bacon in the morning. The rule was to cook it to around #2 and I always cooked it to 6.

Customer: "make sure the bacon's crispy"

Me: "You have the right cook today, I only make it crispy"

[–] Nomorereddit@lemmy.today 2 points 2 days ago

I like my bacon like I like my porn....black and ashy.

[–] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Did they really need to go past 8?

[–] thesohoriots@lemmy.world 26 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I only eat swine graced with the god particle

18 looks good, to fire up a barbeque for grilling my veggies

[–] ZoteTheMighty@lemmy.zip 10 points 3 days ago

Anakin, no!

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 21 points 4 days ago (5 children)

4-6, depending on the type of bacon.

Myself, 3-5.

8 or above is charcoal, not bacon.

2-5 are acceptable. Softer bacon is better than crispier bacon and I don’t care who I offend

45

I prefer my bacon in a gluon soup form..

[–] yilian@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago

6 and 7 are good 👍🏼

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 days ago

19 is too crunchy.

10 through 18 look like the bristolstool chart

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

I usually take a bit from a live pig, so -3

Let's not be ridiculous, anything beyond #12 is unsalvageable! #9 is perfectly optimal though

[–] Karjalan@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I don't understand how it starts getting better briefly after 9
