    Bacon Sandwich

    I'm off for a bacon sandwich. I just felt like mentioning this to get a reaction out of all those ex pats or folks working abroad that miss the good old bacon butty. Mwahahahahahahah

    Come back suity!

    I am an expat and I eat bacon butties quite regularly; in fact, a local butcher is very keen on British cuts of meat, and he cures his own bacon.

    I'll tell you what I really do miss though; Lincolnshire sausages. Must send butcher on study trip to Lincoln.

          You don't toast yours??!!

          That toast looks horrible though. Needs to be Warbies Toastie bread.

            I must say that while some suggest using the cheapest untoasted white bread, personally I'm rather partial to getting a good white bread and cutting the slices doorstep style before smearing with butter and strong mustard and then chucking in the grilled bacon slices.

            Each to his own.

              Swap the mustard for brown sauce & I am with you on that one.

              Damn I now fancy bacon...

                I don't always toast mine either - deal with it nun girl!!!

                If there's an egg involved I would tend to toast however; to provide a more supportive environment for the bacon and egg.

                  Definitely the way to go.

                  Our local deli serves bacon sarnies in artisan bread paninis, accompanied with a small jar of Tiptree brown sauce, and a side salad of rocket and onion dressed in sweet balsamic. The bacon is also thickly sliced and locally sourced and tastes great too.

It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

                    Halo has just run down the stairs and found some bacon in one of the freezers.
