True. Although the huge quantity of salt used in many meats is bad for you. But that's why you cook your own stuff instead of eating store-bought crap.

True that. Also try to stay away from the MSG's they put in some of the meats. Finding the better brands that don't use it can be tricky, but there;s no reason why u can't enjoy a plate full of bacon and not get fat.

our local markets butcher sells bacon rashers which are as thick as a gammon steak usually. No extra additives and such an awesome taste :D 2 rashers of that every month with poached eggs & stuff are awesome

I only watched it cos I thought it had Gus Hanson in it! :p
I've done one of those type of things where you get free stuff if you finish. Was like those burgers, but more toppings plus a whole plate of fries and coleslaw (was quite a huge amount of it actually).
Plus I used to take full scottish breakfasts everyday at work (new job so no more ace breakfast :( ), bits falling off the plate.
And I will wager I have the best cholesterol in thread*, if you eat good things too, you can eat anything you like. I wouldn't judge people because they eat there, I would if they are fat and blame other people though.
EDIT:*Say that because the nurse at work tested me twice for it because I broke their formula for risk factor and had by far the best she had ever seen in 30 years. She didn't even think it was possible. :p

Cholesterol is affected by more than just dietary fat. It has a strong hereditary component. Also, the total cholesterol level is less predictive of heart problems than the HDL / LDL ratio.
Weirdly enough, eating lots of fructose (soft drinks, for example) can raise your cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Yeah they used a ratio, got a risk factor of 1.1 (if it's 5+ they start telling you to adjust your life a bit) because my "good" (HDL?) was actually higher than my "bad" (LDH?) and the other measure thing was even more freaky (dunno what it was). Can't really remember but she was honestly shocked.
And I'm not exaggerating about the dodgy breakfasts, and heavy heavy drink too. But I do eat alot of fish and proper veg and so on at night when I'm home.

A slice of that bacon thing in a bap with a beer would be superb I reckon.
