Re: @Steve Davies 3
if you want to live longer, the medically- and nutritionally-correct approach is: eat American bacon.
Family average age is, sadly, in the late 40s. If eating American bacon leads to longer age, then I think I am going to be one who lowers our average! Streaky is pretty bad, but crisp as well? Ugh. Horrible idea. I'd rather take the "die young" option than eat that stuff! (says he who is about to take an early spring motorbike ride with an unknown bike and untested riding companions on unfamiliar roads...)
