No, bacon is not his favorite...and I don't believe I've ever put any food item on my body on purpose. Unless you count that time in high school my best friend and I made homemade masks... ::takes quick trip down memory lane:: I have pics of that somewhere.
I had BLT's for dinner Monday, and the leftover bacon on a salad Tues. It was the Hormel black label $tuff, because the rest was all fat with barely a hint of pink. Manufacturers don't likely care, they get paid by the pound. You can buy bacon directly at the meat counter though, it's thicker and usually meatier.
Damn, now I'm all hungry.
