Just ate (and made) the best fried bread I have ever had

[Splinemodel]

Today I decided to have for dinner some bacon (the american kind). It had been sitting in the fridge for a little while, and it was time. I had just come back from a 4 mile run, and decided to fry no less than eight (8) slices of bacon in what appeared to be a 10" pan.

I like my bacon crispy, and by the time it was done, there was a verifiable 2cm high pool of bubbling lard in the pan. I didn't have the heart to waste it, so I grabbed the closest available sponge: two pieces of "hawaiian" bread. After2 or 3 minutes in the pan, I had two golden-brown slices or coronary bypass.

But it was absolutely delicious.

Why bother going for a run if you are going to eat that after it?

And what is "American Bacon"?

[Gene Clean]

The opposite of Canadian Bacon.

[ragingloogie]

unless he ate bacon before then at like a salad after would be fine:)

I thought that bacon would be worse, but 8 strips was less than 360 calories. The 360 cals was rated for "cooked tender." I like my bacon crispy. The two pieces of bread were 80 cals each, plus about 90 cals each worth of fat. Maybe a bit more. Either way, with the side of broccoli I ate with it, the total meal was less than 800 calories. Not bad at all.

American Bacon is in strips. I know the Canadians and Brits have their own, different versions of Bacon.

canadian bacon is what ameriacns call ham. peameal bacon is what americans call nasty.

[ragingloogie]

Back when I was a 20 year old triathlete - I ate fries with brown gravy, cheese and mayonaise.

Yum!

i like fries w/ honey mustard:)

[Splinemodel]

The usual order of fries w/ mayo, which is how I eat them, has more calories than my whole meal that night. Plus, not as much protein, if any.

[ragingloogie]

ha... nifty nifty.... yea.. honey mustard and fries are also good, havnt tried them w/ mayo yet

Strange how the eyes & brain can sometimes decieve you when quickly glancing over text... I read the thread title this way (I'm not kidding!):

"I just ate the best friend I ever had"

"bacon" comes in strips in Canada as well.

Back bacon and peameal bacon are something different (more resembling ham). I am not sure what's nasty about peameal. Ever had it?

I enjoy McDonald's chicken nuggets dipped in a chocolate milkshake.

I assume peameal bacon is what they market to us as "canadian Bacon." They are both pretty good as far as I can tell.

You're probably getting back bacon. Peameal has a distinctive appearance to it (it's rolled in corn meal). Both are fantastic :) (of course, I am biased being Canadian)
