Not to say that its healthy in any way. . just a different distinction.

Originally Posted By RoadTrip Pork may be advertised as "the other white meat" but health-wise it is red meat. I have read the HCA stuff specifically in regards to bacon. I still eat my bacon very crispy though. I only have it a couple of times a month so I figure it isn't that big a deal.

Originally Posted By Mr X Actually, ONCE I had turkey "stuff" that was so amazing, it really did taste delicious and tasted "like" bacon and "like" a pork chop etc...swear to God.

I remember thinking to myself as I munched on my tasty faux bacon finger food "self, isn't it a little weird that all the appetizers at this Jewish wedding are focused on pork products?", but then I just figured it was sort of "exotic" for them or something.
