Aw man. The obligatory bacon thread.
Personally, I enjoy it, but tend to eat it in moderation. Usually on bacon cheeseburgers and such. If I do cook some with breakfast, it tends to be of the turkey variety.

Bacon-Infused Bourbon
Bacon makes everything better. That includes alcohol, especially bourbon, which pairs incredibly well with cured pork. The caramel undercurrents act like maple syrup and match up nicely with the richness and smoke of the bacon while the whiskey's spice brings it all together. It's a nice winter treat – the warmth of the bourbon and smoky bacon going a long way toward making a mug of hot chocolate like manna from heaven. To put your own bottle together you'll need:
-750 mL bottle of good bourbon
-1lb bacon
-A pitcher with a wide mouth
-Fine mesh strainer
-Coffee filters
Start by frying or baking the bacon and reserve all of the grease. Unless you're a fan of bourbon that tastes like charcoal, don't burn it. Strain the grease and allow it to cool. Once cool, pour it into the pitcher with the bourbon and give the mixture a good stir. Put the whole mess into the freezer for a few hours or overnight and pass the time by chowing down on your pound of cooked bacon. When cold, the grease will float to the top and form a solid cap on the liquid. Pull the solids out and discard, then strain the liquid. It'll keep in the fridge for about two to three weeks. You can use this same process on tequila, which makes for a spectacular variation on a Bloody Mary.
And there's more good news. Jones Soda is coming out with a bacon flavored soda for the holidays. YAY BACON!

True story that will solidify the power of the pork:
The wife of one of my best friends is a very picky eater and the first time we met her was at a restaurant for breakfast. She told us she was a vegetarian, and then she proceeded to order bacon with her muffin and fruit plate. We stared at her, not knowing what to think - and she said "I don't eat any meat except for bacon" !!!

Well in the sense that eating bacon while doing laundry would make it more pleasant, yes it would!
