The interplay of food, art and tradition is something that few other authors are able to touch upon. Being a writer who blogs about bacon makes it possible for me to do so in a method in which others can not. From trying to trace the origins of bacon in antiquity to looking at its function in modern food, my blog provides readers an extensive look at the diverse world of bacon. My aim is to encourage my readers to incorporate this ingredient into their own cooking repertoire through thoughtful analysis and engaging storytelling.
