Eating bacon can damage sperm, men warned: Eating lots of saturated fats, such as those found in bacon, can have a damaging effect on men's sperm, new research suggests...
Ah right. "Such as those..." and not "which are exclusively". Let's stop right there, shall we, and tuck into some of this:

I love bacon and eggs, bacon sabdwiches etc etc. I have four children (I am assured they are all mine).
L, technically we died out years ago.
Must be an interesting recipe, with ingredients like that?
Perhaps men who have difficulty impregnating their partners turn to bacon sandwiches to numb the psychological pain.
Goody - I eat little bacon but that I do eat is yummy.
Ch, which recipe?
Anon, if that were true, why do we have it for breakfast and not at midnight?
JH, I can't remember the last time I had bacon when it wasn't yummy.
Anon2, at least the few kids we manage to father aren't inbred.
So if you eat enough bacon it's a contraceptive. Excellent! Yet another benefit from this miracle food.
Another good reason for vasectomy. Problem solved. Double bacon, sausage, eggs and mushrooms please, with a side of fried potato. And I don't care how many religious minorities I upset.
To quote a certain blogger, what's not to like?
D, a miracle food indeed.
FT, whether a full English goes with toast or 'fried potato' aka 'chips' is a divisive topic*. Perhaps a Fun Online Poll is called for?
* I love chips and I don't eat bread, and I admit to being a bit of a cavalier with these ancient traditions.
"Eating bacon can damage sperm"
God, who gives a toss? :-)
Sex, the activity that involves throwing away about a million sperm in one go.
"FT, whether a full English goes with toast or 'fried potato' aka 'chips' is a divisive topic*."
Or both! Mind you, I'm a toast aficionado. Best bit is the bacon, always tasty, worst is the the sausage(s), almost always tasteless. Beans are a must (unlike your illustration).
