The Nitrate and Nitrite Myth: Another Reason not to Fear Bacon
Having never feared bacon in my entire life this article did not have a huge impact on me. I gotta say though it is kinda nice to have the nitrate issue reduced to never a thought more. My readers, and anyone stopping by, who does fear bacon – (because of the nitrates and not the fat) may find it interesting. If you fear bacon because of the fat you need Bacon 101. It is in here somewhere. I just have to locate it and publish it. Stay tuned as the Fat part cometh.
