I think we joked about this once, assuming it was fictional.
I like food. I pride myself on the fact that during my trip to Europe, the only dish I couldn't finish was a breaded and deep-fried slice of Spam. This doesn't mean I consider myself a foodie, though. I'm a fan of a lot of things that purists (read: snobs) consider not worth consuming. For example, I still find Wonderbread to be a delight to the palate. Imagine my surprise when, while perusing projects on Craftster, I discovered something I think is too disgusting to eat.
Leaving aside all health concerns (which is hard to do - my anxiety flares up just looking at that monstrosity), why would you want to eat that?! It's nothing but grease! It'd be heavy, and oily, and overwhelmingly salty, and bring absolutely no depth in flavor or interest in texture. Sure, bacon-egg-cheese sandwiches are great, but that's because the bacon and cheese are tempered by greater quantities of egg and bread. If the sandwich was bacon-cheese-cheese slapped between even more bacon, it would lose all of its appeal! If you want bacon, have a couple strips of bacon. If you want cheese, eat some slices (suiting crackers recommended, but optional). But for the love of god, don't pile fat on oil on fat with no oasis but a spring of more oil on an island of more fat and declare it a good idea. Uggggggh.
