Matchup of the Week: ‘Bacon’

The following article was written by Keegan Baur.

The past couple of weeks, I’ve been craving a vegan breakfast sandwich, and I think I’m finally going to make some next weekend! à Get excited. Why, you ask? Because this means I’ve been thinking about the ingredients I’m going to use, and I’ve got good news: Although “real” bacon is one of the worst things you can eat, the vegan version is definitely easier on your heart and your overall health.

With less fat, sodium, and cholesterol as well as fewer calories and the same bacon-y taste, there’s really no comparison. The vegan version is the clear winner. I know what I’m having at brunch next Sunday. Vegan-bacon-and-tofu-egg sandwiches, here I come!
