Admittedly I prefer proscuitto, but even much of that is not good since it tends to be quite salty.

What is appalling is a trend by some chefs to combine bacon with other gourmet cooking recipes. (I realize that it is used to give flavour to some traditional dishes at the beginning of cooking process.)

But even too much of healthy food can not be a great thing: for instance, I can absent-mindedly munch through several slices of artisanal bread within a few hrs., bread that has no fat, eggs, sugar nor hardly any salt. I really have to watch myself at times.

The breadmaking thread elsewhere in TE forums, is some evidence of enjoying some 'fruits' of labour.
