Bacon: a crutch used by shitty cooks to make their food edible.

I hate how hard it is now to find a decent burger or chicken sandwich that doesn't have bacon as a main ingredient. Not just fast food, but diners and chain restaurants as well. I mean, all the fucking potential ingredients in the world and everyone has to toss bacon on it. It wouldn't bother me so much if I could get a discount for asking it to be left off but they're going to charge me for it either way.

Industry professional here; line cook. I have to deal with the reality of feeding a pile of people every day. Bacon is a lowest common denominator bribe. If someone is enough of a hambeast to want it in every dish, that's their right. If fat and salt is what they want to develop their palate for, then that's their handicap.

>>4473509
It's pretty convenient. I kinda make my own thing when I want flavor like that.

its a really versatile flavor because its less adulterated when compared with srirachia. its a nice pure chili flavor.

Also I'm approaching 30 and still think bacon is the shit, especially when it's used in high-end desserts. If the OP was talking about fast food joints riddling everything in bacon then whatever, that's 'Murica for you. However when you consider how incredible expensive bacon from a butcher is used in well-designed dishes then I go back to my original thought:

You're all gay.

Ya, great for home cooks. I keep it around for when I'm feeling lazy.

I tend to be snobish about my chillis; grill my own, roast some garlic with them, toss it in a food processor. It's better than the commercial product, but then it's my job to take time to cook.

Because it couldn't be genetic, and being that old means you know how you got there... couldn't be an accident at all.

And bacon is a salt-fat bribe. I make bacon desserts. They're good, but they're not subtle. Food loaded with bacon should be recognized for what it is; just like using tits to sell beer. Knock your self out on tits all day, I'll be pounding some sashimi thanks.

Man, I don't care much for bacon as most folks do but it still can be used in some things. Replacing skills with flavor assault is the same issue as most hot sauce. Can't cook? Kill it with fire!

I cooked under a chef who thought that bacon was just cheating. It's true. Generally, foods should taste like themselves. Adding ingredients works to accompany the taste of the thing. (see Flavor Bible.) But if you sauté vegetables with little sticks of bacon, they are going to taste like bacon: smoky, roasty, meaty. That's OK, but it can really hold you back. Do you want your asparagus to taste like asparagus or bacon? Flavors like lemon and thyme will bring a fresh, piquant note. Flavors like bacon will bring an unctuous, heavy note.

So the saying that bacon makes everything better is OK, as long as you're cool with everything tasting like bacon.

For the record, I agree with >>4473517

And my feelings for bacon are far from butthurt.

I enjoy bacon, I like it on a burger, I like it on a club, I enjoy a BLT from time to time and on special occasions I will even eat it for breakfast.

That's it, I hate when a filet gets wrapped in it and things like that. I want to taste the expensive beef not the 10 cents of pork you put around it.
