I smell bacon!

The BBC broke my heart this morning, reporting that too much bacon is bad for you. Those darned scientists at Columbia University need to find other things to study, and leave the rest of us to get 'chronic obstructive pulmonary disease' in peace.

Fortunately, "too much" is defined as "at least 14 times a month". That means that you can still safely eat bacon 13 times a month, assuming that is your only source of cured meats. Using my astonishing mathematical skills, this means that you may eat bacon 156 times per year. Assuming one eats three times per day, that is 52 days with bacon for each meal! If you "save up" and don't eat bacon at all until the end of the year, you may start eating bacon on Nov. 10 for breakfast, and eat it for every meal until the start of the next year! See? It's not so bad after all, is it? - Mara

Wow, now I'm a little nauseated... and this coming from someone with her own personal stockpile of cadbury eggs.
