"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Sad.
I guess we stick with the original plan of making bacon from plants -- by feeding a pig.

Bacon (real bacon) is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

Plant bacon is blasphemy.




The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC

There ought to be a law against this crap.

Fake meat, fake butter, fake cheese -- keep your chemistry experiments and give me the real stuff!

Wilted on the vine, as it were.

One of the fondest memories I have as a young child is the smell of Mom cooking breakfast -- slowly rousing me from my typical comatose slumber. Bacon, eggs, toast, and coffee. Life was good. Bacon was good.


I don't believe anyone tries to make a cheeseburger taste like a salad. Or a T-bone steak taste like cauliflower. But the mentally deranged want to make their vegan craptastic taste like beef, chicken, pork, or whatever meat. Vegans/vegetarians are a couple tacos short of a combination plate.

Who could have possibly predicted that bacon made of vegetables would fail?

“Plant based” is quickly becoming such an overused marketing term, my favorite is “plant based” margarine. Uhhh…hasn’t that been plant based since the stuff was invented like 150 years ago?

Laughed out loud at this one.

Whatever substitute word you use for fake meat, I hope it fails and its backers burn in hell.

Harsh. A bit excessive, don't you think?

More appropriate, just sentence them to eat nothing but that crap, ten years for each separate and distinct product, sentences to run consecutively.

Y’all are looking at this the wrong way…

The more folks go in for that fake crap, the more bacon for US!!!






What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???
