Dammit, I know some of you take your health extremely seriously, but it verges on the anal/obsessive compulsive at times.

Deviations within a mixed diet don't matter for shit.

Yeah, a lot of Chinese places wrap stuff in bacon here. Bacon-wrapped wontons, bacon-wrapped good taste bun, hell they've even got a bacon-wrapped spring roll at one of these places. It's great, except i don't eat bacon, fuckers.

WELCOME TO THE SOUTH.

Which Chinese Buffet did you go to MAF?

He carelessly ignored the fact that the place was actually called Cholesterol Buffet. Starts with a "Ch" as well, but there's an important difference.

Inbreded rednecks love chinese buffets. Any word associated with the word "buffet" they flock to them like there's no tommorrow.

Hmm.. sounds delicious, but wouldn't bacon's salty flavor kill the delicate flavor of crab? The bacon must be very low in salt in order to taste really good. ;)

My wife and I bought some bacon around Christmas time ... we used half a pound and put the other half in the fridge.

Since then, we had a power outage for 3 days, threw away most of the fridge .. but the bacon still remained. Well this past week we were cleaning out teh fridge and the bacon was still there ... beckoning to us. So we cooked up some eggs and bacon.

IT WAS STILL DELICIOUS!


ALL HAIL BACON ... great greasy meat of salt and fat!

The bacon was low grade fatty portions and the crab was imitation crab stick.

For your sake, I won't get into the butter.

I always thought the best part of the Chinese Buffet was the Chinese guy.

I saw the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in my life at a Chinese buffet. I thought it was fried shrimp so I grabbed a bunch of them.

Turns out it was a fucking FISH STICK with a shrimp tail stuck in it! :lol

A tall glass of bacon grease to wash it down and its a perfect meal! Also, it'll give your hair a shiny coat.

I just discovered the glorious union of the crab and bacon myself at a Chinese buffet near work . Congratulations.

More food should come wrapped in bacon. Imagine bacon wrapped french fries. I might not be alive in a world where all great foods come wrapped in bacon, but I would have died happy.

I've never seen all the other Chinese food mentioned wrapped in bacon, and I live just outside of Atlanta. Bacon wrapped spring roll sounds interesting.

Wow. This thread is so typically American. Your eating habits are really disturbing. Must you put bacon and grease EVERYWHERE? Seriously, though, I've never seen bacon in a chinese restaurant, ever. And bacon + crab != good mix in my mind. Maybe I should try it. Or maybe not, and I'll stay fit and won't die from a heart attack when I'm 45.

First off, it's not an "American" thing-- it must be a "southern" thing. I've never seen anything wrapped with bacon at a Chinese restaurant, either, and I live in NY where there's one on every corner. You'll occasionally find some things wrapped with bacon at upscale restaurants (non-Chinese), though, but that's done more for the artistry (and to give it some saltiness). :p

Oh, I love bacon as much as the next guy. Problem is when you put it everywhere. CRAB. I mean, what's next? Carrots wrapped in bacon? Cakes wrapped in bacon? Bacon wrapped in bacon?

Most of us americans skip "eating" bacon all together and drink pure grease from bacon straws. Then we wipe off our face with $20 bills and search the globe for oil, wiping out all who oppose us!! MUAHAHAHAHA!! HAHAHA! HA...

Asparagus wrapped with Bacon. Little bit of seasoned soy sauce = Gold!

Bacon is really good when it's wrapping something around.

Just like in gourmet cooking, they wrap around fat layer to give the food and bake them when the thing needs little more profound taste. Bacon, does that say in "everyday cooking" way.

To be honest, all the good taste things in the world comes from fat and carb. No question about it. I guess Americans are little more liberal about it, but bacon=gold.

As Emeril puts it, Pork Fat Rulz. ;)

I've always been fond of those little deep fried things that are supposedly filled with some sort of cheese. Not really sure what they're called, but they're great.

Yeah, sure. I hope you enjoy the 25 years or so you got left in your life. Seriously, dudes, there are plenty of great tasting things in the world that aren't filled with fat. I love fat stuff, but you gotta eat something else, sometimes. You know, fruits, cereals, vegetables, and the likes.. didn't you get any nutritional education? ;)

You're just jealous because our bacon is so much better than yours.

(Please ignore this if you aren't from Canada.)

It's so tight for first place nobody knows right now. And if you aren't first, you're second, way in front of the third. So don't be too happy.

I live in Montreal. Dunno what kind of Bacon I get at McDonalds and Burger King, but the one I cook at home is much better. Saltier, crispier, just better. I don't know if it's canadian bacon or not. You see, I don't think they call it canadian bacon in Canada. And we french canadians just call it bacon. We wouldn't want to eat anything that starts with "canadian" anyway (just a joke, federalists, don't cry).

Good bacon really is terrific.
A filet mignon wrapped with bacon is great!
BLTs are my fave sandwiches, and nothing tops bacon and eggs.

But having "chinese" food with bacon is just strange.
Real chinese food, or at least, high class stuff is much better.
Ever try peking duck? Or shrimp balls covered in peach & mayonaise sauce? That stuff is 10x better with just as much calories baby!

Sure. However what you are forgetting is that you are stereotyping the american diet. Not everyone eats like that, and I personally do not eat like that every day. (Say, I had a cereals in soy milk this morning, had Salad last night, etc.) I'm sure tons of GAF members practice heathy eating. Little indulgence now and then doesn't hurt.

I much rather eat my bacon wrapped filet mignon steak once in a while, and life deserves it.

BTW, wrapping in fat, I think it's a french technique. (at least according to Iron Chef.)
