Kieran, old chap, there are other foodstuffs, you know! I mean, look at it this way: bacon is wonderful, we all agree on that - but if you have bacon, bacon and nothing but bacon, you might - through over-familiarity - start to forget just how wonderful it is, right? So, if sometimes you eat things that, well, aren't bacon, and then you come back to bacon, you are reminded all over again of its baconly wonderfulness!

Just a thought.

Which seems like the ideal opportunity for me to slip in a subliminal plug for... haggis!

Dont be rasher Pat you cant just give bacon up "cold turkey" Kieran is filling his high speed bacon runner and will be with you momentarily. Even those who observe Ramadan are able to eat after sundown , perhaps you should have a nightime butty .

I fear for your health , thank The Lard The Codfather is close at hand. Its at times of emergency like this he really shows his worth. A kind of Bacon Ninja.

It is good to see all the elders of the Church of The Lard gathered round to help this poor deluded soul who has strayed from the path. This kind of thing can get out of hand.

Haggis is a wonderful thing ,dont get me wrong, but nothing can compare to a glistening freshly cooked hairy rasher, if it came down to haggis or bacon I would have to stick with my faith.
