I am very happy that this simple dish (prosaically called apple-pork) makes you guys want to try something Danish that's not pastry ;)

Remember that the sandwich (in the Danish custom) remains OPEN, and is eaten with a knife and fork. See if you can get Danish or German rye bread. The DENSE variety, where you can actually kill a man by hitting him with the loaf!

Just shows that humans are not so complex after all: We all need to eat!

This is one subject where all nationalities, political observations, religions or ethnic groups can talk, because everyone shares the need/love for food.

AH! But do we all share that need equally? ;)

This is the closest I could get:

Pig war
That crisis came on June 15, 1859, when an American settler named Lyman Cutlar shot and killed a pig belonging to the Hudson's Bay Company because it was rooting in his garden. When British authorities threatened to arrest Cutlar, American citizens drew up a petition requesting U.S. military protection.

oh!! 8O you've reminded me of THIS!!!!

Hatfield/McCoy feud!!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hatfield-McCoy_feud
As legends go, the first recorded instance of violence in the feud occurred after an 1878 dispute about the ownership of a hog: Floyd Hatfield had it and Randolph McCoy said it was his. But in truth, the dispute was over land or property lines and the ownership of that land. The pig was only in the fight because one family believed that since the pig was on their land, that meant it was theirs; the other side objected. The matter was taken to the local Justice of the Peace, and the McCoys lost because of the testimony of Bill Staton, a relative of both families. The individual presiding over the case was Anderson "Preacher Anse" Hatfield. In June 1880, Staton was killed by two McCoy brothers, Sam and Paris, who were later acquitted on the grounds of self-defense.

:::sitting on my hands so I don't search for instances using 'kosher,' 'halal,' or 'infidel' in the search on bacon wars, since this isn't The Tank:::

I just found a great sounding recipe for what's called Sloppy Lentils. Basically, Sloppy Joes made from lentils instead of ground meat. I haven't tried it yet, but it's definitely going on the menu soon.

And, while that recipe doesn't contain any, many baked beans recipes do contain bacon (to get back on topic).

Hmm...

Have you ever heard of Manwich, or Maid-Rites?

Or...

Did you ever watch that horrible t.v. show called Roseanne? Towards the end of the series, she sold what was called Loose Meat. All sort of the same thing.

It's basically ground beef with a highly seasoned tomato based sauce (but not necessarily spicy). It's the consistency of a thick stew, ladled over hamburger or s similar bun.

Some of the more health conscious have been making it with ground turkey lately, and now I have this lentils version.

NEW BACON THING!

OK I've learnt something new to do with bacon which is GOOD, here in Switzerland.

Lots of little bits of fatty bacon fried up and put in a bowl - called Lardons.

Make your raclette (read - melted cheese in a pan), tear up some nice fresh bread into bitesize pieces and dip a piece of bread (on a long fork) into the cheese then into the lardons.

Yummy!

More like ground beef chili (see other thread that Don started) on rolls.
