Red or brown?

Are you a 'don't mention ze var' Heinz tomato splasher or a pomp and ceremony duck house loving Houses of Parliament brown dripper on your bacon sarnies? or maybe your a naturist loving as it comes, so to speak?

Also, for that PERFECT weekend lush fest, is it cheap white sliced, healthy brown, or a breadcake, balm, roll type thingy? Toasted? Raw? Buttered? plain?

Black pepper?

Does it have to have vegitation to be perfect? fresh tomato or grilled? tinned tomato or just a little juice? mushroom between the sheets maybe?

Perhaps your a well travelled Stylee and go for the classic BLT?

And the Bacons, the most important bit - smoked or unsmoked? cheap as Bet Lynch or quality BBC2 rashers? back, middle or streaky as an Essex girls tan?

Perhaps a fettish, some Lea and Perrins sprinkled on?

On that day off, how do you want your perfect bacon sarnie?

    You love it in brad, don't you sailor.

    Back to the subject of bacons anyway.

    Unsmoked, thick, lightly done, large fresh bread roll, butter. Nothing else.

    Actually exactly what I just had :D
  • OOO, I prefer smoked, crispy, barm, butter and brown sauce.. Perfect.

    To be fair though, you're wrong!

    Gazlar, Gazlar Gazlar....

    Are you still riding that old Halfords £99 scaff bike? Or something a leeetle more sweetish like? Noticed the difference?

    Dare to be different, try binning the back of the market 3 kilo for a fiver rancid pack and maybe try the Tesco basics for a treat :D

  • bacon (either crispy or lightly done, any variety), bread of any description and some greasy spoons style TK, or heinz if you're feeling lavish!

    Job done!
    MmmBop

    Go big or go home.
  • I really don't mind how I eat a bacon butty. Crispy or not, red or brown sauce, any kind of bread is good, smoked or unsmoked.

    I don't even mind how the pig lived. Whether it was fed on truffles, bathed in the finest mud and put to bed every night from it's 12 acre pen, or left in a sty with 12 other pigs, fed dead bodies and rogered up the wrong'un by a back-door-bashing-bacon-buggerer, It's still bacon at the end of the day, just cook it a little longer if it's the latter.

    If it's in front of me, I will eat it.

    Oh dear, such naivety.

    Your metaphor of bikes, like mine of sexual encounters can be likened to bacon, what I mean is why limit yourself and search for perfection when you can have what you feel like at that given moment. Any time I have bacon, biking or sex is a good time (although I've never sobbed uncontrollably during bacon) but you can have all of them in a way that suits the situation.
    Sometimes I feel like bacon on crusty white with bbq sauce, sometimes on a brown bap, gerty sometimes I go crazy and have it on a baguette with an egg. Likewise if I'm cycling through Amsterdam I find it most enjoyable on a city bike, but I'd find that less enjoyable on the monkey trail compared with a full susser. And sometimes you want meaningful sex with a beloved partner, sometimes being noshed off by a one legged thai hooker is more fun, sometimes youre more than happy to be jacked off by a drunk middle aged family fdiend you've always, known as "Auntie Jean" but is now, insisting you call her Mrs Belvedier, at the back of the Aldi next to the Social Club her daughters wedding reception is being held at. These are just a few vague, everyday examples.

    Essentially what i'm saying is that enjoy all your options

    Unsmoked, quality bacon (not really got a choice here though :( ) in a baguette with some strong mature cheddar, dip of mayonaise and dip of ketchup

    Cheese and onion crisps

    Brown sauce is for Sausages, not for bacons!

  • This thread was enough to send me over the edge. I'm eating a couple of nice bacon sandwiches. For me it's unsmoked, slightly crispy with lots of ketchup, the type of bread doesn't really bother me.

    Unsmoked.
    Little bit crispy.
    In a roll, or possibly baguette, depending on the mood. No butter.
    Maybe a tiny bit of ketchup, if not then fried tomato.
    Heavens.

    soft bacon, only just cooked. Fat left on.

    white bread, no butter

    tomato sauce (im not bothered if it is heinz or lidl or anything in betwen, it all tastes the same)

    make one, make another then eat them both.

    Sideways
  • Crispy round the edge.

    White Bread or Toasted white bread with Lurpak Butter

    Tomato sauce.

    Although I do prefer a Sausage Barm really :D

    Sounds like you might have some sort of learning/mental/retardness disability there... either that or you prefer it becaue you are in fact gay, same thing really. In which case you should talk to Josh.

  • lets face it. All real men are well aware of the fact that the only way to eat sausages (or any obvious shaped food) is with a knife and fork.

    Antything else and you are sending a clear message that you are infact an uphill gardener.

    ive always said tht people who eat bananas only eat them because they like the shape
  • I tend no to eat too much of that type of food. Last night I did purchase some thick, smoked bacons and had them on my home cooked burgers with some melted mature cheddar between them. That is about the only time I'll eat bacon

    Bit of a purist, me: well done bacon, white bread, nothing else (no sauce, not even butter). It's the way it should be.

    Fresh Warbertons toast bread with real butter, fry the smoked bacon with no fat until just cooked with a dab of heinze tomato ketchup!

    Adding a couple of slices of fried haloumi cheese tastes good as well.

    Not really just think it tastes nicer than bacon. Bread or eaten with a knife and for.
