Bacon is meat candy.

[RStar]

Ok, I use turkey bacon once in a while (my wife can't digest beef or pork well) and then I got to looking at the label. Sure, it's leaner. But it has more cholesterol than pork. MORE!

So, naturally I thought to myself WTF???

Then it occured to me. Turkey meat is not all that plyable, so how could it have that rubbery texture and still be turkey. And where'd all that cholesterol come from? Ding ding ding! The skin. It's turkey skin! Yum!

I'll stick with good old pork. Thank you very much.....
