Hey, have we had this totally-banal-yet-potentially-polarizing conversation yet? How do you cook bacon?

In the oven. Not only does it come out deliciously chewy, but it frees up the top of the stove for other breakfast items. Also, can be made in the toaster oven. I pour off some of the grease in the middle of cooking so that it stays chewy, if you like it crispier, leave it alone.

In the oven. Actually I start under the broiler and finish in the oven.

Also, I just line the pan with foil, then let the grease solidify and throw the foil-with-grease out. Simplifies cleaning.

If you live in DC (or the capital of your country) and can make THIS happen:

"Eight women each holding up one of the letters; G, I, S, H, W, H, E, S, to spell GISHWHES in front of a monument in the capital city of their country"

before 11/29, and take a photo of it, please contact me.

Um. Thanks.

Side note on OWS protests: My favorite chant from San Francisco protesters when confronted with police has been, "You're sexy! You're cute! Take off your riot suit!"

Emma Goldman would approve.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I cook bacon in the oven in a foil-lined pan. No mess, no bacon-scented house, no smoke alarms.

Scavenger hunt, Erin?

I usually make bacon in the microwave, but you have to be careful what kind of plate you use. I've cracked a few plates that way, because, if you want to get really polarizing, I like my bacon the way Agent Cooper does:

"Super-crispy. Almost burned. Cremated."

Oh, that's me! I take even a little farther than "almost" sometimes.

I like my coffee black as midnight on a moonless night, too.

I was going to ask what GISHWHES stood for, but I just googled it. AHA.

eta: or, I could've followed Erin's link. Duh!

I will gladly eat bacon cooked by Amy, amyth, or Agent Cooper! I wish I liked my coffee black as midnight on a moonless night, because I do enjoy sating it.
