Call me nuts but I like the 4-5.5 range. I’m not a fan of chewy fat…
This is the objectively correct answer.
My ex liked the 6-7 range while I like the 2-4 range. We were thus incompatible and broke up after the umpteenth time they made it “for me” the exact same way they did for themselves.
(The last bit is a joke, the first bit isn’t)
If your ex liked 6-7 they were clearly too young anyways.
💁
Are you sure they didn’t break up with you because they heard you use the word umpteenth?
Hi nuts, I also like them in that range.
I called ye nuts but they didn’t answer…but anyway, same for me, gnawing is never a positive experience.
high five
Crispy through, no chewy but not carbonized.
“I said CARAMELIZED, damnit!”
side question
Have you had candied bacon?
I tried candied and chocolate covered candied, usually cooked to about 6.
I liked it, but after I ate it, I had no desire to have it again. It’s the strangest thing.
Yeas, and same. :D
I agree. I like a little crunch, and floppy bacon pulls the breakfast roll apart!
It seems it self-heals a bit after #9 and reassembles back, so I would like to try that #10
That’s what happens when you take it out at 8 or 9 when some areas of the meat have not been fully converted to carbon. Around stage 10, this conversion adds some support but then the bacon becomes much more brittle from 14 to 18.
That’s the bottom half of #9.

Are you a vegan or do you eat pigs alive?
Which do you think is worse?
Trichinosis is a bad time.
The other one doesn’t eat bacon.
damn that’s tough…
Seriously though, my wife got a vegan BLT at an artisanal brewery, they had tempeh bacon where they make their own. She stopped eating it because she was worried it was real bacon (she’s just pro pig). I tried it and although the texture was only 80% it was by far the best vegan product i’ve ever had.
Hard choices
I only eat swine graced with the god particle
The Higgs Bacon
Ahem. Piggs.
I like my pigs how I like my sexual partners: Alive and well
4-6, depending on the type of bacon.
I want it to stand horizontal if I hold the end :p
That’s what she said
It should snap like a potato chip, not a French fry.
That’s a good way to judge it.
This is the way. 6 can make a bad day great.
2-5 are acceptable. Softer bacon is better than crispier bacon and I don’t care who I offend
It depends on the dish. Like Chinese pork belly should melt in your mouth, not break your teeth. But on a bacon egg and cheese sandwich, the bacon needs to bring the texture.
3 is the breakfast buffet pile of hours old leathery bacon all stuck together with lukewarm grease. This is not an acceptable bacon. 2 for sandwiches, 4 or 5 for plain eatin

Edit:
I’ve been vegan for 10 years and I still miss 2-3 style bacon. Vegan bacon does a good job if you like Canadian bacon and/or 4-6 on this chart, but nobody has made fatty vegan bacon that’s good around 2-3 cookedness
local brewery made tempeh bacon that was very, very close to what you’re looking for, try smoking some tempeh
source: I’m not a vegan and it was VERY good.
“Canadian bacon”? Define that for a Canadian. Because we have back bacon, and peameal bacon in Canada, and streaky.
“Bacon” in the states specifically refers to streaky bacon, while “Canadian bacon” refers to back bacon
5 or 6
Same. I like it almost burned.
45
I prefer my bacon in a gluon soup form…
10 through 18 look like the bristolstool chart
Anakin, no!
Does the bacon reassemble itself between 9 and 10?
I usually take a bit from a live pig, so -3
Hey, I saw NerdCubed play this.
Let’s not be ridiculous, anything beyond #12 is unsalvageable! #9 is perfectly optimal though
I don’t understand how it starts getting better briefly after 9
You know what, yeah, you’re right - 10 is objectively super yummy as well!
Only went to 9, everything after that is shitpost
Not necessarily accurate, but here’s my own interpretation:
1. Canada
2/3. Britain
4. USA
5. Ireland
6. Deep South US
7. A college dorm
…
18. Portugal
- Brazil
