What if bacon is actually good for us?

My nephew had been under the weather for about two weeks. His aunt and grandmother, with all their medical expertise as a current and former bedside nurse, prescribed him a regimen of over the counter medications. One to reduce the fever, one to reduce his mucous, one to alleviate his stuffy nose, and one for the body aches. For a week he lived life under the fog of medications and at the end of the week he still felt like crap.
Then he asked me what he should do. I have no medical training, and, in fact, I had to drop my college Microbiology class because I was failing. That failure prompted me to switch my major from the hard sciences to the social sciences.

My response, of course, "Eat more bacon!" I also told him to keep the bacon fat and use it in his preparation of other food. More bacon means better health.

He came by a week later to announce that he took my advice and he felt much better now.

Go Bacon!

Oh! Did I mention that bacon is also a "wearable" food?
