Bacon a Love Story is a great all around guide to both how bacon is made and eaten. The author deftly weaves in comments from professionals in the food industry and rabid fans of the wonderful meat to showcase to the reader the wonders of this great meat. After reading the book I came to realize that as much as I love bacon there are lots of people out there that put me to shame. I guess I will have to start using some of the recipes provided and maybe order some specialty bacon to step up my bacon intake.
