Bacon Mania
Why are Americans so batty for bacon? It's delicious, it's decadent -- and it's also a fashion statement.
Bacon is rebellion. Bacon is sexy. Bacon is kitsch. Bacon is an Internet joke. Bacon is a crafting trend, and not just for carnivores. Bacon is funny. Bacon is America.
Anthony Bourdain has called bacon the "gateway protein" for its astounding ability to lure vegetarians back to the carnivorous fold.
