I figure as long as we got cuspids and bicuspids, we should be eating meat.

Panda bears have them too, but eat only plants.

I bet they would like bacon, though.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Why are you suggesting that any other species start eating bacon?  Is there a reason I am currently unaware of why the world supply of bacon should be shared with another species?  How will doing so advance humankind, or more specifically APS-kind?

stay safe.

Skidmark makes a good point. I remember the lessons about sharing in kindergarten and elementary school. Thinking back, though, I can't recall that anyone ever mentioned bacon....

Such lofty questions are meaningless when my doggy looks upon me with her big, sad, brown eyes.

Bacon shared.

Dogs understand bacon. That is why there is a special exemption in the Bacon Commandants for them.

In an Apocalypse situation, one dog is worth ten vegans.

^This. The original bacon-sharing premise was based on pandas. The family dog would get a share of both bacon and panda meat.

 I routinely need to remind my wife that sharing is taught in kindergarten. Since I never went to kindergarten I never learned to share.

As for the pork equivalent of crack... Prosciutto maybe?

I don't think so. Anybody (you) who can't tell the difference between a zombie and a cute doggy will be made into bacon for the rest of us.

I love my doggies. I share many tidbits of human food.

But no bacon. Why? Well, simple really, I DON'T share MY BACON!!!!!!!

One evening, after a night on the town, my friends and I decided to wrap up the evening with a late night meal at a local breakfast-served-open-to-close diner. One of the guys reached over to swipe a slice of bacon off my plate.

He almost lost his hand.

Do not ever touch my bacon  :police: and we can always be friends.  =D

And it's about as substantial in concept as unbiased journalism. Contradiction in terms.

Not really. Nowhere on the package do they state that it's meat. It clearly says "turkey". As we know, turkey, like all fowl and fish, is a vegetable.

It is a travesty, I agree.  But I felt that Seeker had to know.  Better that he hear it from us in a supportive environment than from the Democrats.
