Forgive me for being so inactive lately. I haven't been much of an adventurer since I started this new journey which I still prefer to keep mum till something happens.
It has been 41 days since my last red meat gorging. And I think, it has finally taking its toll on my well being. *sheepish grin* and while I was scanning my phone for rubbish pics I found this!
Oh hello there my good friends...
Dear Oinky Bacon,
I miss your crispy personality. I can't get enough of you. I'd welcome you anytime of the day. I miss the way your smell makes me dream of a sunny day while swinging under the shade. I miss how your crunch marries the chargrilled taste of your good friend Beefy Patty.
Dear Beefy Patty,
As I've said, the experience is not perfect without you in the picture. It is an empty gastronomical fulfillment. It was like drinking coke zero or pepsi light without the zing. Or eating low fat ice cream. Subtitutes just don't make the cut. It is not the real thing.
Good, good friends...when will our paths cross again?
Until then, I will keep you on the pedestal of my wish-list.
This monstrous burger by the way, is from Davao. Had the chance to sample it way back in March 2012.

I sometimes indulge in burgers as I too am trying to eat healthily these days. It's a good thing that our cravings are easily satisfied with the famous burger outlets available in the market :)

ReplyDeleteWow, parang patok na patok sa panlasang Pinoy ito sis. I love burgers too - but beef nga lang.
ReplyDeleteVisiting from CE Sept4.

ReplyDeleteWhen I go to Davao, I'm definitely going to try this! I love all the red meat too! :) hahaha!

DeleteHah! I Loved this post! Shared it on twitter.
ReplyDeletethanks thanks!
Deletehmmm.. mukahang masarap ha.. :)
ReplyDeleteNot a red meat fan anymore, but I continued reading anyway hehehe. This year is my fruits and veggies year. I do eat meat for protein...but red meat is a rarity in my diet. I'm glad the craving for that is gone. Maybe that's why I continued reading to test myself lol!
ReplyDeleteThat's really mouth watering burger..ooops, need to watch my diet. hehehe...

I feel for you, I just can't imagine my life without red meat. :(
ReplyDeleteI forgot to say, please join my birthday/blog anniversary giveaway pala: http://beforeiturn25.blogspot.com/2012/09/drinks-are-on-me.html
DeleteI am not really into red meat but sometimes I got too taste one that my tastes buds can't identify it was a red meat, haha.
ReplyDeletelooks super yummy!
ReplyDeleteVery inviting.. looks delisyoso :)
ReplyDeleteVisiting again from BC bloggers. Hope all is well at your end :)
ReplyDeleteI'm eating minimal red meat now and have switch to eating more fish and white meats..hopefully it will help me to lose weight..
ReplyDeleteI am such a meat lover. I've been contemplating on cutting my intakes but this post makes it so hard.... hahahah
ReplyDeleteI want to eat healthier now so maybe I'll have meat once a week. Ii dont know we'll see :)
I am now craving for burger :D
ReplyDeletei've been hearing about gino's burger and after your post i would definitely try it one of these days...
ReplyDeleteBoth my parents are carnivorous so we had red meat ever single day. Hubby though was raised eating mostly veggies so that's what he wants our kids to get used to. I have to have my red meat atleast thrice a week though. Otherwise, I go into withdrawal and get really cranky. :))
ReplyDeleteMeat for sanity! haha
ReplyDeleteYou need those proteins from meat. It is all about balance or veggies and meat. (I sound like I practice what I preach. I don't. Carnivore, here!)
Gotta love the burger! I am craving for one!
ReplyDeleteI am not ready to swear off red meat just yet, but I will need to stay away from burgers and fast food for awhile. :)
ReplyDeletetoo bad it's so far! haha i want to taste it.. love bacon!
ReplyDeleteYummmmy burger! Are you on a diet? You've held out for 41 days so far. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteyes, i am on a special diet. i have to say bye bye to red meat. i have to make this sacrifice :)
DeleteYum Yum! Too bad we don't have it in here in Cebu.
ReplyDeleteBacon! <3 I've been craving for this for the past 2 weeks. But I had to content myself with fish and vegetables. *hul* Healthy eating is no fun sometimes :/
ReplyDeleteOh lalala... super oozing what a burger... can't eat this at once..lol.. Speaking of Bacon.. goodness that is my fave, I can eat bacon only without anything on the side.. barely bacon common... yummy.
ReplyDeleteI do crave for a huge burger once in a while, too.:)
ReplyDeletei dont eat pork, i mean i avoid eating pork, but beefstakes, goatsmeat and lambs are welcome! and burgers like this makes me hungry! :P i wish im in Davao to try that one out!
ReplyDeleteI'm a bacon lover. BLT sandwich is really great for me. It's ok to have it naman once in a while. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post... I'm drooling now! hahaha! :)
