I don’t eat bacon anymore, can’t say i miss it or the following indigestion.
You are clearly not built right. I can’t ever recall having indigestion from bacon.
It’s a shame not to consume pig in all its forms, they put in such a lot of effort for us.
We too though have reduced our meat consumption and are also eating more white than red these days. I buy from a quality butcher who sources his meat from “non-intensive” sources. Yes it’s pricier than supermarket stuff – but not by a huge amount and tastes far better.
I do have a cheeky Gregg’s bacon butty now and then though (naughty I know, but I would pay extra for “non-intensive” if the choice was there).
I do though share your misgivings about industrialised slaughter. Even if you are going to eat animals, there is no need to mistreat them whilst they are alive. There were moves years ago to make available on-farm mobile slaughter houses which would enormously reduce the stress on animals as well as reducing the cost of transporting livestock. It seemed to come to nothing.
