Soft, "medium-rare" bacon.

Post by pinback »

Am I the only one in the world who likes soft, barely cooked bacon, with plenty of unrendered white fatty bits still oozing grease?

I'll hang up and listen.

Yeah, not me. I like it firm, but not overcooked. My wife likes it burnt. She actually likes a lot of things burnt. If we order fajitas, her favorite part are the little pieces of meat that stick to the skillet and turn black.

Right. That settles it. I'm the only one in the world.

To be fair, right now we only have "(everyone in the world) - 2". We will need a few more responses for a control group.

Also, I had someone offer me a bottle of this tonight. I passed.

I'm sorry, Ben. I'll gooooooooo with that style of bacon. I don't hate it. But that's the kind I can make. I can't make the crispy kind.

As a result, I like what I can't have more.

I am now off to play a game with collision detection. Any game with collision detection.

The slower you cook the bacon, the better it tastes. Chewy, with crispy edges, that's the way.

Bacon? Chewy without the chew; this just means its cooked about three minutes before it becomes crispy at all (so it is also still cooked). I always had difficulty obtaining this with packaged bacon and found that the butcher block (where they cut a hulking slab of it into strips for you) was always the preferred type (was recently turned onto Apple smoked bacon but that is the usual packaged nonsense).

That's the only kind of bacon I like either, the soft, chewy kind. I do not like crispy bacon.

Actually, Comcast lost $20. They promised a 1-3pm arrival time; the two guys did not show up until 5, so my landlord will get a $20 credit.

Oh, and the reason I will not ask him for a credit is he's actually giving me a discount, I only pay him $10 a month. It may have to do with my attitude as a tenant. I don't ask for anything unless I'll pay for it (like adding Internet), I pay my rent on time, by bank check, and I don't bother the other tenants unnecessarily and when there is a complaint (my room often smells because opening it up to air it out is difficult), I fix it as soon as possible.

Let me explain the joke to you -- I am willing to pay Comcast $20 to turn off your internet access. And by "$20" I really mean "four billion dollars."
