I recently made buckboard bacon and it came out great. makin bakin
Like most people on this board, you like to share what you made with friends, family, and even coworkers. Especially when I had 10 pounds of bacon!
Here's the problem. When I ask people if they want some they ask my WHY did I make it in the first place? Why do I even bother?
They tell me they can go out for BQ and feed up for $20 and there is no mess or work.
I usually don't care but this last time with the bacon was unreal. 90% of everyone I told that I made bacon asked Why? Why bother? I can go to the supermarket and buy it for $5 or go to the butcher and have it cut thicker. Bacon is bad for you. Why would you make so much? How much bacon can you eat? You have too much free time!.
Has anyone else experienced this? I would like to here some opinions on how to deal with people who don't "get it" Remember these are family and friends!
