N = C + {fb (cm) . fb (tc)} + fb (Ts) + fc . ta, where N=force in Newtons required to break the cooked bacon, fb=function of the bacon type, fc=function of the condiment/filling effect, Ts=serving temperature, tc=cooking time, ta=time or duration of application of condiment/filling, cm=cooking method, C=Newtons required to break uncooked bacon.

According to scientists (????) at the Department of Food Science at Leeds University this is the formula for a perfect bacon sarnie.
( Scientists' 'perfect' bacon butty (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/west_yorkshire/6538643.stm) )

I can't believe four researchers spent more than 1,000 hours testing 700 variations on the traditional bacon sandwich - AND DIDN'T PUT A RUNNY FRIED EGG IN THERE..!!!!!!! Heathens!!!!!!!

a VEGGIE!!!!! how do you get the energy to get out caching? :lol:

and any veggie is just one whiff of a bacon sarnie from coming back to the real world.

mine always used to be bacon and mushrooms with brown sauce.. but only because you could guarenttee that the egg would drip all over the uniform otherwise.

LOL

i thought there was something missing from this equation....

they forgot to add in the extra value for when it is made by someone else. somehow a fried breakfast or bacon sarnie always tastes better if you didn't make it. ( even better if away from home and no need to think about the washing up) :D

And a good bacon sarnie has been the downfall of many a vegetarian. I love crispy bacon sarnies myself.... B)
