The bacon switch.
Have you ever noticed how bacon is a lot like fudge? When you are in
the mood for bacon, or when you can smell it cooking you are absolutely
ravenous for it. Likewise when you're walking through the Fair grounds
and you come upon the fudge lady with her neatly stacked rows of sugary
goodness in front of her. You can't wait to try some and it's very
difficult to eat bacon or fudge slowly. And every mouthful is
deliriously good...until you hit that critical limit. Unlike other
foods where you can feel yourself slowly getting full or tired of the
flavour and decide to reduce your intake over a period of fork or
spoonfulls, with bacon and fudge it's like somebody throws a switch and
suddenly even the sight of the stuff is enough to make you hurl. Weird
that. One mouthful you're faint with pleasure, the next you swear
you'll never touch the stuff again.
