Ok. I'll be the oddball (what else is new).
We use Morningstar Farms veggie bacon. We are not vegetarians though we do a lot of vegetarian cooking. We do it for health reasons, not moral reasons. We stick to a pretty low fat diet, low salt, lots of whole grains, etc. As a physician, I'm just acutely aware of how very poor the average American diet is and how much disease results from it and I don't want to head down that road. Dad died of heart disease. Mom has high cholesterol. Lots of other heart disease in the family. I used to enjoy a nice crispy strip of bacon but gave it up a long, long time ago.
