Recovering Vegetarian: Bacon Click it!
By Unknown Neva | Jan 08, 2009 | One ResponseI saved trying bacon for a friend of mine in Philly. She loves bacon and also knows it is one of two meats (salmon being the other) that I remember eating in my youth.
We went to the Down Home Diner at the Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia to eat bacon. I think the meat came from Lancaster and was raised by the Amish community. I will admit the bacon tasted great, though it seemed completely unhealthy. If you were to choose eating a piece of chocolate fudge or a slice of bacon, both items probably would probably have the same affect on your body. Although the bacon was good I am not planning on adding it to my diet. I have enough “bad” foods that I love and do not feel I need one more to add to the mix.
The Reading Terminal Market is an indoor market that is open year round. It would be a great concept to bring to Spokane especially given our weather patterns. Take a look at the website for a list of fantastic vendors and restaurants. If you find yourself in Philly be sure to stop by.
A place more fantastic than this indoor market lurks just two blocks away in Chinatown. Go to Kingdom of Vegetarians. It is an all kosher vegan restaurant featuring all you can eat dim sum for $12.00.
