Bacon Fried Bananas

I have many uses for bacon and its greases. I found this recipe and my stomach rumbled. This look so good and it will be very good with fried eggs and heavy buttered toasts. Got to go to store and pick some packs of bacon. Need to remind my wife to save the grease. She became a convert after tasted her oatmeal flavored with brown sugar and bacon grease. You should have seen her "drink" the oatmeal on one gulp and ask me if we have any more oatmeal....
One day, I asked nice lady who prepped all food for kitchen to save bacon fat for me. All I got is her "gross" stare at me but she did save fat for me after she is done with baking the bacon. Before my lunch break, I showed her what I did with bacon grease with oatmeal. Other "gross" stare with grimace on her face. She told me that it is bad for my health. hahahaha. I had eaten so many with bacon fat and I feel fine, very fine. I had offered her to taste my oatmeal. She hesitated to but do that anyway. Her face changed, surprised by the flavor. I told her that I had eaten this kind of oatmeal during my childhood years. Very delicious.

Hey, if you only moderate comments older than 14 days old you may get more comments... Just a suggestion.

I just thought of this the other day. "Bacon. Bananas. Hmmm!"

I am not surprised to learn that someone has already done this.

Years ago I had bananas fried in honey. I wonder how they would be if a bit of honey was added to the grease?

How about sauces? A bit of flavored mayo, or some kind of sour cream topping. With bacon bits!

I really gotta try this!
