It strikes me that a Cheese Baconator would qualify in the category of Very VERY Treyf.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Technically, treyf is one of those is-it-or-isn't-it things, but there are a few things that call out for an extra added bonus level in a binary system.

I think I missed something because I know not what Treyf is.

I am sending help!

I want bacon-- but i had a yummy porkchop.

My cat is all of the sudden being really picky about food. She used to like this really cheap 9 lives stuff, but she has been sniffing it and turning away for a couple of days. Tonight, she seemed like she wanted some of my dinner, so I tried to give her some pork, but it turned out what she really wanted was my rice? And to lick the bone/fat of the porkchop.

Treyf is a Hebrew (Yiddish?) term for food that's not kosher. Bacon= not kosher and you're not supposed to combine meat and dairy, so a cheeseburger = not kosher. So, a cheeseburger with bacon on it=very, very not kosher.

Some things have more "you shall not do this-and-that" attached to them (for example, it's way worse to eat little bugs which may hide in certain un-washed-properly vegetables, like cabbage or lettuce, for example, than to eat pork).

My browser crashed twice while I was composing this post. Who else still doesn't think there's a demon in the machine who nurtured a grudge against me?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I like to say that my college roommate who was Israeli and like anti-religious (her line: "I'm from there! Isn't that enough??") would eat a bacon cheeseburger during Passover.

Puppy Picspam!

They went to the groomer's today. I wanted to try to catch them looking purdy.

eat a bacon cheeseburger during Passover.

With unwashed lettuce, shrimp, and the cheese comes from a non-kosher animal. On Yom Kippur.

[Edit: Yeah, I know that Passover can't fall on the same date as Yom Kippur. But if she's trying so hard, she can bend the fabric of the space-time continuum.]
