I feel the same about liver, kidneys and other dark coloured wobbly bits in an animal. But hey I know a few older folks who eat both bacon AND these suspicious looking parts and they're perfectly healthy, normal sized and don't have health problems. Obesity isn't caused by bacon alone, it's lack of exercise, hugely fat and suger laden treats and booze...amongst other things. Having bacon for breakfast also makes you less hungry during the day and so you snack less on crap until the next meal. The problem with fruit is that you burn through it on no time at all and within and hour and a half you're hungry again. Bacon seems to have an excellent slow release of energy and provided you don't scoff the crispy fatty rind is perfectly healthy.
