Re: Bacon, is very good for you
Meat and animal fat is not bad for you. People have been eating bacon long before McDonald's and Twinkies were around.
You actually need animal fats. It's all the processes foods and oils that are bad for you. Sugar, modern GMO wheat, processed vegetable oils.
Do some homework. I bet your grandparents ate plenty of bacon and other meats, and stayed away from a lot of the whites.
BTW, it's not the bacon or the eggs that are bad for you. It's the Toast and the cereal that were both made with processed, bleached flour that had whatever small amout of nutrients processed away. there's a reason they have to fortify it when they make your bread and other processed foods.

I also like mine cooked to the point where it is crumbly. NO pieces with chunks of chewy fat for me. (However, I do like my STEAK where it is almost mooing.)

One thing from the article I was not aware of on the nitrate-free is the celery salt aspect causing the bacon to have much more nitrates. That was informative and interesting. I will have to check the organic brand I use to see if that is what they do as well.

Do Applegate Products Contain Nitrites or Nitrates?
The short answer is yes, but with another longer story. Nothing is ever simple, is it?
All animal proteins are made up of amino acids that contain naturally occurring nitrites and nitrates. And so Applegate products made with animal protein will have levels of naturally occurring nitrites and nitrates.
In addition, the celery juice and sea salt used to cure our meats also contain naturally occurring nitrates.
For these reasons, the USDA does not allow animal protein products to state “nitrate/nitrite free” on their labels. So, being law-abiding citizens, we don't state that.
Packages for our products are required to say “no added nitrites” since they contain the naturally occurring variety, but were cured without the addition of chemical sodium nitrate.

Re: Bacon, is very good for you
The Food Pyramid you were taught in school, much like any of the the government's nutritional guidelines, have absolutely nothing to do with your health. It's all about consumption/$$$.

Amen!
Still it is taught like it IS Gospel truth.
What about Wonder Bread it was claimed to build your body?
The Whiter the bread, the faster your DEAD.

Thanks! I was also looking for this information:
Quote:
Everything You Need to Know About Bacon
Some nitrates, however, are naturally occurring, such as celery juice and sea salt, which can also be used to cure some meats, including bacon.
What does make sense is “Fresh Air Pork” or pork that is fed an all-natural vegetarian diet, made up of the sorts of nuts and berries that hogs forage for in the wild. Like free-range chicken or pasture-raised cows, happy pigs make tasty bacon.
Here are some great brands making organic, natural bacon that you can be proud to feed your family:
Applegate Organic Bacon
Organic Prairie Uncured Bacon
Pasture Perfect Free Range Bacon

Re: Bacon, is very good for you
There was an Organic restaurant in Fort Lauderdale which my friends owned, and they are Weston Price members. They would make me sweet potato french fries, topped with kimchee, and smothered in bacon grease. Yummy.
