When comparing bacon to braunschweiger, although braunschweiger is "healthier" it isn't by much. I'm surprised that you give it the thumbs up. Just sayin'.

It's not really a thumbs up--it's as much a thumbs up as I give bacon. I don't eat either much any more, because it's not that I don't want to eat these things, it's that I am physically unable to. If I ate more Braunschweiger than I should have(a couple dabs on some crackers does it for me), I would get horrible acid reflux, same as if I ate too much bacon. So these are both foods I eat with reservations--however, the nutritional benefits (high heme iron content) to women in Braunschweiger can't be denied
There's only one time a month when I really need that heme iron...though I'm just as likely to crave the salty grease of bacon. Then it's almost worth the risk of pain.
