Ok, I'm going to be straight with you: I could not imagine my life without bacon. Seriously, I just made homemade Mac n' cheese last night and added bacon to it. I am a meat eater. However, if you want to become a vegetarian, or vegan, go ahead and do so. Remember to eat rice and beans to provide protein. Also, avoid frequenting any place that seeks shirts that say:

Vegan (a.):

Ancient tribal slang word for the village idiot.

It's amusing but mildly offensive. Vegans are people, too.
