Yeah - as requested, I have to share the triple bacon bacon bacon story....
When I was in college, it was our practice to order pizza for a sunday night bible study that I routinely participated in. One night, we were speculating (among more religious topics) how much bacon you could get on a pizza and still have it be good.
Somewhere in this conversation, as people are talking over each other, etc. someone yells out "triple bacon bacon bacon" (which is either 9 "toppings" of bacon or 5 - all depending on how you interpret it). So, we're going to order a triple bacon bacon bacon pizza and see how much bacon we get.
But we need a comparison - why not get a meat lovers pizza, but with all the meats that aren't bacon replaced by bacon? Done!
The order goes in, and we wait hungrily for our bacon pizzas.
Suffice to say that they were DIGUSTING. They were so greasy, and there was so much bacon (the meat lovers with all the non-bacon meats baconed had the most, but not by much) that it had effectively prevented the pizza from being properly cooked. There was unmelted cheese, cold soggy bacon, and grease drenched crust to contend with.
It was, in short, a digestive nightmare.
...And that's what I'll tell my children if they ever ask if there can be too much of a good thing...
