Keep talking crazy, livestock analysts. Bacon will continue to be consumed by Bacon Challenge participants (and probably every other bacon eater), tomatoes or not, so go ahead and drop those prices. That's what we like!
And just for the record, I'm going to keep eating tomatoes too. What's so horrible about a little salmonella with your BLT?
