Yes indeed! <munches blueberry muffin for comfort> No bacon in the house!


What's the likelihood of bacon being a banned commodity on some planets in the 33rd century?

I don't really care about planets - as long as we can buy it in stations for scoffing on our ships!! ;)

Very high I reckon. After all, it is extracted from an animal that is alarmingly compatible with human physiology.

Aye - not to mention certain religious objections (assuming that religion will still be doing its thing).
 
<grins> Any excuse for an old song!

My in-game persona is an inveterate contrabandista, with a long history of smuggling - thirty years worth, in fact.
In ED, I'm kinda killing time 'til FD get smuggling sorted - currently, it's a pale shadow of what it should be.
 
There's a world of difference between crackling and scratchings - but both have a high pork-fat index! Personally, I much prefer crackling.

I prefer both, if that is possible, scratchings are to beer what ketchup (or brown sauce) <shudders> are to a Bacon sarnie.

It all comes back to choice. I quite like an egg with mine, sarnie that is not crackling or scratchings.

I'd hazard a guess and think most "meat" products would be grown in a lab/fab. However, people would still revere "animal meat" as a delicacy, seeing its price quotes in the market...

And, oh yeah, those Lavian Tree Grubs. Do they live on brandy?

HA! I did a science project wherein I used data like that to prove we had more biology in common with a pig than a monkey. Furor ensued. But it was good data! ;)

It was very high in some systems, that's why father had to smuggle that meat in and pork-bomb the protesters.

That all said though - aren't we now in the 34th century? *scratches head and thinks*
 
Imperatrix would roughly equate to commander originally (under the Roman Republic and earlier).
Julissa may well be the Baconatrix - but she is most definitely the Commander of the Bacon Cats!

I certainly don't wish to claim more authority than I have (first of equals, Command by consent, etc)... But if this is true, why hasn't anyone brought me some slaves and bacon?

I want slaves and bacon!
