[QUOTE=breakyourfac;42596755]But I make my own Italian sausage by grinding up pork shoulders a little venison and mixing it with pork fat. Does this apply to people processing their own meats? I don't add any chemicals to it or anything, so I don't see how this would apply to me[/QUOTE] afaik a lot of chemicals aren't added to store bought processed meat either. it's the fat content in the food that would likely cause it to alter sperm count and shit.
So if you wore a bacon flavored condom, your screwed?
Time to eat assloads of bacon :D
Not like I wanted little screaming bastards running around my house anyway.
[QUOTE=TaniaTiger;42596339]Awesome, I don't want kids. My boyfriend can now expect to wake up to a bacon sandwich every morning. What a delicious plan[/QUOTE] Have fun paying for all that bacon.
Reddit's gonna have a fit.
Baconator is doomed
I don't like bacon. [I]incoming boxes because of an opinion[/I]
I never liked bacon anyways, so just good for me!
China should drop the one child policy and just feed everyone bacon, then everyone wins.
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;42598301]Not like I wanted little screaming bastards running around my house anyway.[/QUOTE] you wouldn't of had to worry about that to begin with
[QUOTE=yawmwen;42597927]afaik a lot of chemicals aren't added to store bought processed meat either. it's the fat content in the food that would likely cause it to alter sperm count and shit.[/QUOTE] That's fine then, most of the sausage I make is made to be hung up and dried in cold weather. So it has to be lean (70/30) or else it will won't cure properly.
[QUOTE=TaniaTiger;42596693]I'm not sure how you deciphered that poster as a woman, but nothing can get me down right now because this thread reminded me of the power of pork and I'm currently eating a whole pack of streaky, smoked, sexy bacon. And it is glorious.[/QUOTE]What if bacon has the opposite effect on a woman? So much so that all the bacon you're eating makes you [i]so fertile[/i] that you get pregnant simply by inhaling the musk of a bearded man. You better hand that bacon over to me, I'll try to keep my scent in check.[QUOTE=Grabigel;42598387]I don't like bacon. [I]incoming boxes because of an opinion[/I][/QUOTE]I gave you a rainbow because you probably make up for it by loving sausages extra hard.
The opinion that bacon is not delicious isn't just wrong, it's [I]morally[/I] wrong.
[QUOTE=Mingebox;42600509]The opinion that bacon is not delicious isn't just wrong, it's [I]morally[/I] wrong.[/QUOTE] devout jews and muslims would disagree wholeheartedly. (they still want it)
I guess the walking dead season 4's storyline is up already. A case of bad bacon, good job rick caught on that the pigs had diseases.

Can you explain how German American immigrants had like a million kids then... I mean they didn't eat a meat that hadn't been salted or fermented or smoked or ..this is making me hungry
most of these studies are bullshit
[QUOTE=Grabigel;42598387]I don't like bacon. [I]incoming boxes because of an opinion[/I][/QUOTE] you're not human
[QUOTE=Sableye;42602374]Can you explain how German American immigrants had like a million kids then... I mean they didn't eat a meat that hadn't been salted or fermented or smoked or ..this is making me hungry[/QUOTE] because bad study Theres no discussion here really, this is a bad study plain and simple. People who choose to eat white fish etc primarily over red processed meat are generally out of the ordinary, above average etc. They are probably more health conscious than the guy who doesnt care where his food comes from, and therefore probably have lifestyle factors that contribute to a healthier sperm, such as being less obese, not smoking, less alcohol consumption, more active etc. It is not that processed meat in and of itself is harmful to sperm. Which would be silly, considering saturated fats are a necessary building block to many aspects of your endocrine function.
I'm not worried about this, in fact, i'll probably eat more bacon. It's mainly due to the fear that if I have kids they'll turn into me.
I like bacon, but I also like fish. Guess that balances out just fine then!
Its only obsessed as a kind of "family-fun-for-all" meme. It's fun to say how awesome bacon is, but i don't think anyone would literally eat tons of bacon. [editline]21st October 2013[/editline] In other news, Infertile people who breath oxygen have a 77.85% chance of being human.
