    On the rare occasion I buy rashers I usually have to stop halfway through frying them to pour off the water.
    Bacon can be tasty though.

    It's because of the Jason Statham film

    So true, you have to pay for quality rashers these days. Nothing like
    a crispy bacon and fried egg sandwich


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,933 ✭✭✭smurgen


    Lamb is disgusting,they're veiny little fuc5ers!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,059 ✭✭✭WilyCoyote


    I drive 2.5 hours each way every few months to get rashers and puddings. And have a big feed of them every Sunday morning.

    Why not just splash the water on your face and pretend you're in Ballybunion, swimming

    Can we not we all chip in a few quid and send the OP for a spot of therapy?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,650 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    Simple as OP. You're wrong. It's not open to interpretation. Rashers, Bacon, Pork and Sausage are all gifts to mankind.

    Bacon is that nice I hear bin laden had a toasted rasher sambo in his hand when he was shot.

    There's only one thing nicer than bacon and thats chicken and bacon.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,754 ✭✭✭oldyouth


    Try having a bacon sandwich without bacon. It just wouldn't be the same


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,661 ✭✭✭✭kneemos


    Bacon is the only meat that doesn't taste like chicken.

    Yeah, I've never got it either. Bacon is grand and all but rashers and sausages and ham are all far nicer.

    Pigs are filthy animals. I don't eat filthy animals. Pigs sleep and root in shit. I ain't eat nothing that hasn't got sense enough to disregard its own feces.

    One of the distinct pig characteristics is their cleanliness.

    Contrary to other people’s belief, pigs are generally clean animals. This is shown by their choice of toilet far away from their food and water troughs and their shelter. They will also not sleep or lay near the manure. They use mud to block their sensitive skin from the sun and insect bites.

    rashers ARE bacon :confused:

    OP, bacon is lovely, but only if it's cooked crisp and not that rubbery way cafes often cook it.

    You have to cook it right. A little crispy and it is beautiful. But of you under cook it and serve it all soft and pale its crap.

    It was a test and we failed miserably by coming up with things like the meat feast pizza!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 83 ✭✭murphydublin

    Back bacon and streaky bacon?

    Interesting bacon fact - in Canada back bacon is called peameal bacon.
