“I averaged like a pound of bacon a day,” Jacob Elordi said of preparing to play Elvis. “It’s not that noticeable because I’m quite long. But I was the biggest I’ve ever been.” https://t.co/pQolS3iIm8

I haven't found the best animal-free bacon yet, but as it's always super crisp here I sometimes just add crisps to a sandwich.

I love Morningstar fake-on!

My organic/local supermarket might have it.

That's my go-to as well. There's another brand called Sweet Earth? It had better texture/taste but it's pricey. It took some adjustments to cooking it right. It can be a little chewy. I've used fake bacon bits on salads or soups and it tastes fine.

Is that method acting for the new generation?

New motto for Gen Z -

“just eat bacon. Bacon solves everything”

Stuff like this always makes me think of Sir Laurence Olivier schooling a then, young, Dustin Hoffman over his method acting--

"Have you tried acting dear boy???"

LOL

Would never advise it but my ex would eat about 2 pounds of bacon each day and was actually very slim. He never ate any flour based or sugary foods tho
