[QUOTE="Impeesa, post: 2464946, member: 498"] Funny you should bring this up. I'm a big fan of the bacon. No, I'm not fat (that's me to the left). But I do have a theory, the Universal Bacon Goodness theorem. It states, basically, that everything can be made better with bacon. Allow me to indulge myself with a short anecdote: Sometime last spring, my parents took my three youngest siblings away to Disneyland for a week and a half or so, leaving me and my next-eldest brother to fend for ourselves. As soon as they left, I had him go get the bacon (there was none in the house). He brought back three full packs. I decided we should test my theory. Over the next week (we ran out before they got back), we had bacon on: -nachos (plain cheese and bacon) -pizza (freezer pizzzas, added extra cheese and bacon) -hot dogs (made whistle dogs.. mmm) -quesadillas (cheese, bacon, some combination of peppers/onions/pineapple... don't recall exactly) -sandwiches (made chicken clubhouses for the two of us plus a friend who was getting a ride to D&D) -waffles (classic breakfast - our control group, as it were) -eggs (see above) I think there was more, but it's not coming to me now. We did some of those more than once, too. It got to the point where we weren't bothering to wash the pan, just scrape it out a few times a day. The theorem is confirmed so far. :) Here's an experiment for all of you: Go find your nearest McDonalds. See that "make it bacon" on the menu? Costs about 50 cents or something? It doesn't say "burgers only" or anything stupid like that. Order a milkshake, fries, and a vegetarian salad, and say "make it bacon." Don't specify which item unless they ask (in which case, say "all of it"). See if you can break the poor register biscuit's brain, and see which items (if any) end up with bacon on them. :D --Impeesa-- PS. w00t, post #1000 [/QUOTE]
