Lucky you. I've never found a date willing to wrap herself in bacon

Life Pro Tip.

Cook the bacon and let it cool first, before applying.

Green tomatoes fried in bacon fat? Sounds pretty good to me.

ikr OP has never been to a US county fair. They take any food, and deep-fry it.

That's not the kind of fruit we're talking about and you know it.

Mincemeat Pie Begs To Differ

Nowadays you may not find meat, but 'authentic' could still include suet.

Came here to mention mincemeat. Good stuff.

For those of you who have never tried it - it's mostly dark brown sugar, cinnamon, & raisins. But it has that fatty aftertaste you normally associate with bacon as well.

You’ve never had my lamb sausage dusted strawberries obviously.

Lots of fruits are good with a bit of bacon. Especially if you have some brie in the mix but not only. Peaches with a caramelized onion and bacon jam, apple slices with a sliver of bacon or salami. Was it elvis who used to like peanut butter banana and bacon sandwiches?

Maple with a bit of meat sounds good (maple bacon)

HikingVet@lemmy.ca · 9 pts · 1y

Uh, where's the fruit of a maple tree? The sap is good once boiled down, but maple isn't a recognized fruit.

Tomato is a fruit

DirigibleProtein@aussie.zone · 1 pts · 1y

They both sound gross.

Thats because fruit tastes good and meat does not. Adding fruit to meat would better the meats taste, but adding meat to fruit will worsen the fruits taste
