  Sounds good, but that would mean having to buy some bacon.  I've only
brought bacon twice in the last 10 years.  :)
  Nothing against bacon or any dietary reasons, it just costs too much for
me.  But I do love crispy bacon.
  Green beans is one item were I open and heat.  I prefer the French cut
beans myself.
