There used to be lot of thought that dogs and their owners were generally cut from the same cloth.

Not my dog. She loves getting her meds (coated in peanut-butter and wrapped in bacon), but is scared to death of loud noises.

Bacon is an incredibly rich and fatty food with a high salt content, which can prove to be too much for a dog's stomach to handle. Eating a large amount can cause pancreatitis, which can be fatal.

The vets always told us to never give bacon to our dogs.

I jest. The dog rarely, if ever, gets bacon. Occasionally a piece of cheese or luncheon meat (neither of which is particularly good for her either).

For that matter, I rarely get bacon, lol.

I save it as a treat for me on weekends, but I also for use in cooking; when cooking chili, I like to start with enough slices to cover the bottom of the pot before adding all of the diced and sliced sirloin.

Well, I have had recently some bacon ice cream. That's pretty tasty.

I recall taking my son to a nice restaurant in Wiscasset, Maine when he was quite young. They didn't have a kids menu, but the waitress promised to whip him up something he'd enjoy. I don't recall what I ordered, but I do remember being envious of him...a peanut butter and bacon sandwich and a big pile of french fries. Took months to break him of that lunch request.

I think there's a special column in the actuarial tables for people that eat like that, lol.

Really? That same pot of chili is then spread out over 6-8 meal servings.

As an eater of bacon, bacon bits, bacon ice cream, BLTs, and God knows what else which has bacon as an ingredient, I shouldn't be funning anyone's dietary preferences.

I do have a weakness for a BLT Don't have them very often. I like them on toast With home grown tomatoes, miracle whip and romaine. A little salt and fresh ground pepper.
