Subdeacon Joe Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 Study Shows Eating Bacon Will Make You Live Longer Science has enriched the lives of bacon-lovers everywhere. A study conducted by researchers at ETH Zurich has concluded that the high levels of Vitamin B3 (known as niacin) in this meat could help you live longer. To test this, Energy Metabolism Professor Michael Ristow fed roundworms a dose of niacin, discovering that they lived one-tenth longer than those who went without. The vitamin is also rich in the likes of Marmite, paprika, peanuts and sun-dried tomatoes. This is surprisingly contrary to what scientiests believed, because the standard assumption has been that niacin promotes the formation of "free radicals," causing faster ageing. An antioxidant-rich diet has been contradicted by Ristow's findings, which shows that niacin "tricks the body into believing that it is exercising," perfect for any particularly lazy individual. Next up will be testing the theory on mice, but for now allow me to personally thank science.
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 Ask the pig about this.
Mean Matt McCord, SASS #24683 Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 Ask the pig about this. Now, now, Charlie. If God did not mean for us to eat pigs, why did He make them out of bacon, ham, and sausage?
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 Good question, Matt. But no way you look at it, is the pig gonna like it.
Buffalo Bill Mathewson, 37826 Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 Good question, Matt. But no way you look at it, is the pig gonna like it. That is why you don't ask for the pigs opinion.
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 All he is gonna do is grunt, anyway.

Subdeacon Joe Posted November 28, 2013 Author Posted November 28, 2013 Wait....smoke is a preservative. Sugar is a preservative. The spices in sausage are somewhat preservative.

Warden Callaway Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 I have a family group picture of about 30 people taken in late August of 1950. I was two months old and mom was holding me. Everyone was slender except for two aunts that were a bit soft. I know what these people eat every day. And most of it in cast iron on a wood stove. None of it would be on a modern diet. Sure enough, one by one it killed them. Dad past away last year at a few days short of 95. He lived at home and cooked and took care of mom until a couple of days before he died. A few months before he died I was up to visit and he was just taking up supper. Two large pork stakes, fried potatoes, gravy, biscuits and green beans. My diet plan is, if it was invented after 1940, spit it out!
Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Deacon all those you mentioned dont make my BP spin out of control!

Grumpy Old Man Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 We have customers come in looking for a low salt ham. I tell them, even our low salt ham is not really low salt, just less than the others.
