      The problem with those is all the additives, such as nitrates. You can also get nitrates from eating bacon which is not nearly as processed.

        Yeah, nitrates are way worse than most of the stuff they’re worrying about.

        They are at least trying though, unlike all the other ‘for the children’ movements

        Bacon is processed and isn’t super healthy for you.

          But that’s the case even for home made bacon (or any home made smoked / cured food for that matter).

            Yes, bacon is generally unhealthy and shouldnt be regularly consumed.
