If I eat whole wheat pasta (a standard dinner-size serving, more or less), that's good for me, right?
What if I prepare it with bacon -- four strips?
What if the bacon is uncured, nitrate/nitrite free, hormone free, and made from free-range vegetarian-raised pigs?
What if I fry the bacon and cook the pasta to al dente in the fat (which also includes a couple tablespoons of olive oil, the not-so-virginal sort that I prefer in these situations for its higher smoke point) (and a dash of water for moisture, and some marinara sauce)?
Does the pork fat cancel out the whole wheat? Can I still reap the benefits of all that wondrous insoluble fiber? Am I going to die young anyway?
Pls advise, thx.
