Wait, wait. I worry what you just heard was give me a lot of bacon and eggs. What I said was: Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.

"Fish meat is practically a vegetable." So THAT explains my "vegetarian" friend who eats seafood!

They forgot the best scene. A stripper comes up and asks him if he would like a dance. He doesn't even look at her, just hands her a plate and tells her to get some more bacon and eggs. With an emphasis on the bacon.

I have vegan friends whom I eat vegan meals with and heck, my avatar is a Smiths album cover entitled "Meat is Murder." That being said, when I eat with those delicious meals with those friends I go directly to the grocery store after buy meat and then come home and cook it.

Love Ron Swanson. Perfect "conservative" character to show how ridiculous they can be sometimes.

He's a libertarian, not a conservative.

Steak, whiskey, a DVD of "Bridge Over The River Kwai," and a cigar? Challenge accepted, Mr. Swanson. "-Stop, you had me at meat tornado."

Never seen the show, but after viewing this video I'm going to start watching it. That was hilarious.

"Give me all the bacon and eggs you have." That's right up there with Jake Blues ordering "four fried chickens and a Coke" in Aretha Franklin's diner.

Throwing out the vegan faux bacon samples and the burger contest were both particularly funny.
