Bacon is meat candy.

No. bacon will turn out okay in the micro if you do it right. First cut the bacon in half so you have shorter pieces. Then lay out more paper towels then you know you'll need - say 20 - in a pile and then put the bacon on top on one even layer. You can overlap just slightly as the bacon will shrink - but it will also stick the edges together a little. Then lay a bunch of paper towels on top - maybe 10. Microwave for 1 minute per FULL piece (you cut them in half - don't forget that - if you cut 5 pieces in half to make 10, I'm talking 5 minutes) - but soemtimes that's a tad bit too much so I always take 30 seconds off. That's that. nuke for 30-60 seconds more if it doesn't look done enough. this is for microwaves that rotate. if your's doens't - but a new one!
