For nearly 33 years, I lived without experiencing the joy of bacon. In retrospect, it seems almost criminal. My family never included bacon in our meals—not for religious reasons, but simply because it wasn’t part of our culinary repertoire. I often avoided breakfast meats altogether, opting instead for fruit or toast, convinced that I didn’t like them. When ordering salads, I would request extra avocado but no bacon. The allure of bacon eluded me, and I could not comprehend its popularity.
Then, last week, my dear friend Lily came over. She has a knack for spoiling us with delightful meals and decided to prepare a brunch featuring a Red Pepper Frittata and Brown Sugar-Chili Bacon. I hesitated, mentioning my lack of enthusiasm for bacon. Lily looked at me with disbelief. “Have you even tried it? You can’t possibly dislike it. It’s practically impossible!”
That fateful June morning, as the bacon cooked, the air filled with an enticing sweet and savory aroma that ignited my curiosity. I couldn’t resist any longer; I took a tentative bite, prepared for a potential disaster. To my astonishment, it was nothing short of extraordinary—delicious in a way I had never imagined. It felt as if I had been missing out on a world of flavor, and I found myself savoring each crunchy morsel.
Since that moment, my thoughts have been consumed by bacon. I envision it in the morning, at lunch, and during dinner. Ideas for dishes like warm bacon dressing over greens, bacon and spinach quiche, and bacon-wrapped dates swirl in my mind. I realize now how much I’ve missed all these years. What was I thinking?
With 33 years of bacon-less living behind me, I am eager to embrace this newfound love and relish every single bite.
