If we're talking shameful eating, I once cooked up some bacon o go with whatever it was I was eating that night. Was 6 strips of bacon that was cooked that evening. Then I looked in the pan and saw the pool of bacon fat and thought, "I bet a slice of bread would soak that right up" so I tossed in a slice of bread.
It did soak it right up. Got all crispy too!
Then I ate the piece of crispy bacon fat bread along with the rest of my meal.
I'm not dead, but I felt like death for a few hours. I can only assume it made me stronger.
