Bacon butty...

I decided to treat myself to a bacon butty for breakfast on New Year’s Day, as a gift to myself for tolerating this hideous disease for over five months. I don’t know quite what it did but I can hardly move my hand today. I haven’t done anything else weird or different so it can only be the bacon. How annoying is that?

Not that weird - loads of salt in a sudden burst if you've been eating a low salt diet can do odd things. But makes me envious...can't get proper bacon where we live and I yearn for a bacon butty at times. Or even better a fried egg and bacon butty!

Oh no, not HP sauce! I am a highly refined person so a twist of freshly ground black pepper on my soft white bread, butter, egg and crispy bacon (and a cup of tea of course...)

But hope your hands have now recovered and you'll stick to dreaming about them instead.

It’s the only thing I ever have a sauce on! My parents would be horrified! X

Marmite, HP sauce, peanut butter....all things that can divide families more than politics!

I had to google bacon butty. Wow a bacon & butter sandwich does sound so delicious....and greasy & salty....yummy.... I can't stop thinking about how well a poutine would serve as a side dish with your bacon butty....yummy...

I've got to stop thinking about this ...lol.. . I live in a poutine crazed city and I'm proud to say I never ate one. I guess a bacon butty has to go on the never, never list too.

....but a girl can dream eh? :)

hi Jules13 ,

I don't think it is weird. I find some meat and highly processed food regularly make my hands sore and tingly. but as a once in a blue moon treat a bacon sarnies is still worth it. i have tried switching to more fish and vegetables as well as fewer but better quality meat meals which i cook from scratch? Fewer ready meals and pizza too?

Jules13 in reply to spzgirl51

Well the trouble is I can’t afford a cooker or fridge yet for my new house so eating lots of soup. Just blended vegetables and then microwaved. Or cold stuff of rye toast. No ready meals yet. Cooker will be installed in 2 weeks time. Hurrah.

It will be a gorgeous stir fry with salmon and snow peas and some whole grain rice. I know that sounds very healthy but I’m actually craving cooking lovely healthy food. Hate microwaving everything. X

Oh yes... Anything with animal nitrates .. Bacon sarnie .. Ham on a pizza ... and my joints especially fingers and elbows are jumping and stabbing. Hence why the bacon sarnie is only very occasionally. 😐
