No, I definitely did not go without bacon for two years. It was easily available. As long as you had no problem walking to the back corner of the store and entering a monstrous, prohibition-like steel door with the sign NO MUSLIMS ALLOWED. When that door opened though, man oh man, the angels did sing: ham, pork, Oscar Meyer, Canadian bacon pizza, sausage, Pop Tarts. Yes, you read that correctly; Pop Tarts. Pop Tarts in the Pork section; highly suspicious.
One morning I was fixing up some eggs and bacon and I went out to the hall to deposit my trash. My sweet neighbor was just leaving her apartment. My sweet Muslim neighbor. She asked, "Oh, what is that lovely smell?"
I didn't have the heart to tell her Bacon.
