UK scientists make best bacon sandwich

Let me bring everyone back to reality and show you what humanity is capable of. In Sci Fi films brilliant scientists are building robots, meddling with alien DNA and designing laser guns but in the real world UK scientists are answering that most important of questions, “what makes the perfect bacon sandwich”.

I know what you’re thinking, “bacon sandwiches are good and all but I’ve wanted a robotic housemaid, a laser gun to ward off the local hooligans and the added mind powers that only alien DNA can give me for ages!”

But the triumphant scientists at Leeds University have given mankind something that they can use whenever they like. Every man should be able to get some bacon and bread where as getting a license to have a laser gun would be a lot harder.

The answer is simple: take two or three back bacon rashers, cook under a preheated grill for seven minutes at around 240°C and nestle between two slices of farmhouse bread around 1-2cm thick. Then eat.

Four Leeds University Department of Food Science experts spent 1,000 hours to work their way through 700 bacon sandwich variations trying out different breads, bacons, oils and anything else that could be possibly related to their cause.

Every bacon loving man out their should be thankful for their hard work.
