Turkey Bacon vs. Hog Bacon
This morning after a 45 minute cardio workout  Annie and I met for breakfast at The Comfort Dinner. The Lumberjack Breakfast called out to me...my inner Paul Bunyan needed two pancakes, two eggs and bacon.  I couldn't reject the temptation.  Annie reminded me that I could do a few things to make the Lumberjack more waist-friendly.  She recommended that I order the eggs poached and ask for turkey bacon instead of regular  bacon.  I didn't even know that turkey bacon existed.  Pleasantly surprised by its flavor and nutritional content I came home and cancelled my membership to the Bacon of the Month club.
