Within reason, for sure!! I’m so tired of all the nutritional advice that takes away my favorites,

Not just bacon!

Exactly my point!! Why torture people in their last years??

I could not agree more! As a nurse I would see families restricting their family members diets when they were very elderly and for what reason

When at 92 I had to put my dad in a nursing home I told them to give him whatever he wanted to eat

He lived to this age growing up on meat left over from the slaughter house where his dad worked and never had a cholesterol problem

I wasn’t going to limit him now!!!

Joined the Dining Committee as the bacon advocate! Gotta laugh at that one. Nothing like putting your cards on the table. I love bacon, eat ice cream regularly, and as for cheese -- can hardly go a day without it. I'm about to turn 85, am active, healthy, and will probably live another 10 to 15 years. Here's to eating what you enjoy (within reason -- gotta add that).
