Welp, time to head for the hills....

I can deal with all the putrid political bile choking my facebook stream. However, it came to my attention today that the nation's BACON RESERVES are at a 50 year low. Color me a very concerned citizen.

"Fortune magazine reported it days ago, noting the non-profit Ohio Pork Council says demand for frozen pork belly, often made into bacon, has far outpaced supply. We currently have only about 17.8 million pounds, it was reported, which the average southerner can go through in a week."

If they were ever a reason to impeach someone this would be it.

To be fair, there's no supply issues at all. Worst case is prices go up. If everyone knew that, I'll just see myself out...

You could avoid supply issues and buy your own pig, raise it (or have the farmer raise it) and have it slaughtered. Lots of bacon and other pork goodies. :)

So, you're saying we don't need to break out the Tactical Bacon.

Like oil, the Strategic Bacon Reserves are always intentionally understated. They only want you to *think* there's a shortage so they can manipulate the market...

I think Canada probably has some Bacon fields that need liberating.

You were there not that long ago and didn't even have the foresight to gather that vital intelligence for us? Totally un-American.

We're building a wall to keep you greasy, criminal, drug smuggling Americans out of our great country. Canadian bacon is for Canadian's only!

Canadian bacon would most often be mistaken for a meat dish in the US, so you can keep that, we want all of the over processed, dyed, pork-ish strips they call "bacon," apparently.

Canadian bacon != bacon

:popcorn:

Strategic Bacon Command is probably wanting other bacon-rich, bacon-producing nations to deplete their resources before tapping into our reserves. But that's just a guess.
