Why is bacon so delicious

[Idunno]

I thought we’re not supposed to eat bacon. It’s sinful. It’s bad because pigs are carnivores or whatever 

or pigs are full of maggots

but bacon is RIDICULOUSLY delicious. Don’t deny the truth 

[Geezy]

Bacon is meat candy.
I am not a Jew under rabbinical law so I can eat whatever I want thank God for the new covenant. There are too many forbidden foods that I eat that wouldn’t be allowed as a Jew.

1 But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,
2 by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron,
3 men who forbid marriage and advocate abstaining from foods which God has created to be gratefully shared in by those who believe and know the truth.
4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with gratitude;
5 for it is sanctified by means of the word of God and prayer. A Good Minister's Discipline (1 Timothy 4:1, NASB)

This is an interesting topic: Why did the Creator ban the consumption of pork under the law of Moses?

Some say it was just one of the many ways to set the Israelites apart as different from the pagan nations around them. Others say that it was the divine wisdom of the Almighy, knowing that undercooked pork carried the risk of many food-borne illnesses, and so this was a protection. And yet others see it as symbolism - the pig represented hypocrisy, because it put forth it's split hoof as if to say "see I am kosher" on the outside, but by not chewing the cud it was not clean on the inside.

INTERESTINGLY, the animals that split it's hoof and chewed it cud were ruminants. Ruminants were more nutritious because of their 4-chambered stomachs. They could remove all the impurities, and at the same time extract all the nutrition, from the grasses they ate. Ruminant meat was thus considered superior, even in ancient Israelite culture.

I consider in its own food group and it lands up high on the pedestal of things to eat. Maybe even at the top.
