Over eating on high quality bacon won't stop you from being a lard-ass.

Have you tried that though? I'd say the reason why people associate bacon with being fat is because people that overeat bacon tend to overeat junk food, sugary snacks, industrial bakery and drink litres of sodas. Truth is though, that over the last few years more and more studies are disproving[0] the connection of saturated fat with obesity and heart disease.

He mentioned "eating better". Eating "high quality bacon" isn't eating better.

Hey, it's better compared to low quality bacon.

I won't disagree with that - if I'm making wrong nutritional choices, let them be as tasty as possible!

Nothing wrong with bacon, fine source of macro calories. Maybe it's a little high in sodium.
