Blasphemeal!

[arturis]

Today I had the idea of trying to make a single meal that would violate as many religious dietary restrictions as possible. The notion began with trying to violate every kosher rule in one meal. Such a meal would likely be both disgusting an illegal, since it would need to contain a bird of prey, a bat, and some bugs. But if we, say, limit it to

"Blasphemy" means something and it doesn't mean "religiously offensive". Besides, you're not any of those things anyway, so it isn't really a violation of anything. You're just some guy eating a meal.

Some Guy Eating a Blasphemeal!

What makes you think the name I chose for my meal has anything to do with blasphemy?

Because it sounds a lot like it, and is a fairly transparent portmanteau.

Nope, It'a a Bizarrre Coincidence.

In all seriousness, I'm using definition 4.

Well, bacon is sacred. To me at least.

All Hail Bacon.

That, I can get behind. In fact, I think it was only this week that I said a life without bacon isn't worth living.

Just don't blaspheme it, otherwise I'll have to come by and pelt you with stones.

I made some crappy bacon this weekend, and quietly apologized to Matt in my head when I did it.

Matt, I want to make you the patron saint of Good Fucking Bacon. We'll worry about canonization postmortem, but for now I'm just going to pretend.

Which reminds me I should do another fancy brunch thing. I think we've put enough distance between us and election day to make a bacon-oriented gathering appetizing again.

Bacon is fatty, and always makes me feel greasy and unclean when I eat it. I'd rather have sausage links with pancakes (waffles!) and syrup, or some other meat like a ham slice with my fried eggs. Scrambled eggs should be eaten without meat - or with hot dog bits if you're feelin' like a kid.

So arturis - can you add bacon to your Blasphemeal? ^_^

Re: All Hail Bacon.

[arturis]

Sausage is also very fatty.

Re: All Hail Bacon.

[wunderworks]

Not as Fat as my Co....see my comment below. ^_^

Also, Ben, I suggest you have good bacon from a good butcher prepared well. It changed my whole outlook on the crunchy, fatty crap I've held as the standard.

Aww man, I was all in it so you would add the bacon to the meal, and now you're acting like I was serious. =P
