But I prefer baking my bacon. That way I have all that wonderful bacon fat left for other uses.

and, btw, most restaurants....at least decent ones....do not use pre cooked bacon.

Good lord. I guess you haven't been to a diner lately. You can sit at
the counter and watch them cook the bacon right in front of you. It
doesn't come from a can. The eggs don't come from a carton of
pre-scrambled egg subtitute, either. Nope, they'll break the eggs right
in front of you and cook them on the griddle, to order. (I do suspect
the hash browns may be from a carton.)

Glad you found something she likes.

When I posted about the guy I met in town telling me how great the fried
chicken was on his visit to Amish country you proclaimed the Amish don't
know how to cook. Now, apparently, they make fine canned bacon.

K-rats? C-rats? You really need to get your mind off that ship.

And when I posted about using a pressure cooker, he told me that pressure
cooked food was crap and that anyone who would use a pressure cooker
probably also thinks that canned food is the height of cooking and is
prepared absolutely perfectly...

BTW, Jill, canned rations aren't used on ships and, to the best of my
knowledge, haven't been for well over 60 or 70 years. Food in the Nav is
actually pretty good, even at sea.

I just resurrected a pressure cooker and am re learning how good it is I
haven't used it for years and had forgotten about it. So far I've just used
it for veg I am trying to remember what else I used it for. It would be
interesting to hear what other users do. Best start another thread I think.

He also claimed there weren't any Marines on Naval ships. LOL My dad
served on the USS Gen. M.L. Hersey (AP-148) in WWII. I don't recall him
ever commenting on the food on the ship.

I was on board Oklahoma City (CLG-5) for two years during Viet Nam. The
Okie was the flagship for the 7th Fleet, and we carried a large detachment
of Marines for ceremonial duty escorting the admiral. We loved it when we
pulled into a port where other Navy units were visiting because "our"
Marines protected us in bar fights from other sailors. But we lived in
fear of being the only unit in port, because then the Marines didn't have
anyone else to beat up on in a bar and they'd turn on us.

Being Flag might also be why our food was pretty good. We had our share of
mystery meat, but we also got a lot of decent cuts of meat and even
occasionally fresh lobster when the commissary officer made a good score.
