Lifestyle: Bacon as a food: Is it too fatty?
Lifestyle is all about self-tutoring. The tutor looks into a long-time curiosity: the viability of bacon as a food.
Most of us probably love bacon. Is it too fatty to be taken seriously as food? To quote HAMlet: To eat, or not to eat, bacon: that is the question.
I decided to compare bacon with peanut butter and cheese. My specific interest is the fat content versus protein content. My findings:
| Fat:protein | |
| bacon (cooked) |
10:9 |
| cheese (cheddar) |
11:7 |
| peanut butter |
8:3 |
I’m surprised how well cooked bacon compares to the other two.
