Bacon, it’s really about the hog lard for me 🥓

Berkshire Hogs, the ones that Mariaville Farm raise and smoke over on Duanesville Church Road and sell at For the Love of Bacon are particularly rich in delicious fat.

Some people like bacon with their eggs. That seems like a bit to much saturated fat and way too greasy to me. But I sure like a slice – or even a half slice of bacon fried up with onions, mushroom, zucchuni and spinach – for that rich salty bacon taste without too much grease all around. It’s a good alternative to olive or avacado oil, and adds so much as a special treat while I camp.
