    My vote is "yes" but if you are referring to all meal times I vote sausage because of the huge variety available in the world. If you are referring to breakfast I vote bacon. I love me some breakfast sausage, I even make my own, but I will pick bacon over breakfast sausage nearly every time.

      I vote "Yes." Reading through all the posts made me hungry so I am going to wake the house up while I fry "something."

        I cure my own bacon, I grind my own sausage. Can we answer both? Bacon and sausage!
        vote twice? 1 for each.
        I will vote Bacon at home.
        if eating out sausage

        (I voted bacon)

          Bacon is far more versatile as an ingredient for..well everything. But I also agree floppy bacon is subpar.

          Sausage, on the other hand, has a much greater variety of flavors, and Is harder to mess up for service.

          I am in the camp of having bacon at home made to my taste, and sausage everywhere.

            Spinaker, thanks for creating a “which of your children do you like best?” poll! 🤣

            Love them both. And if I’m only making one it’s because I don’t have the other on hand. If eating out, like many, I tend to lean toward sausage…higher chance of it being cooked to my liking.

            I have a clear and consistent preference for sausage. I like bacon, and it shines as an ingredient, but as a breakfast meat, if given the choice, it's 100% sausage.

              Yes, this. A nice thick patty of juicy, sage flavored breakfast sausage perfectly browned is just a thing of beauty.

            Anyone remember Smithfield Ham Bacon. That stuff was great. Then they did away with it.

            When I was a kid, I’d ask my mother who her favorite child was. She would respond that with three such wonderful children, it would be impossible to choose. I learned from my mother. I’m with the yes votes.

              My mom made it clear that I was not the favorite. I will admit that I deserved that 100%. LOL.

                  There is a local butcher called Rusty's Meat Market that makes the best breakfast sausage I have ever eaten. The make it on Tuesdays and they regularly sell out by the weekend. I mix a pound of it with a pound of TN Pride Hot Country Sausage and it is sausage heaven. That being said, I still vote for bacon. I like Neuske's and Wrights, but any brand is pretty good. I can't say the same for breakfast sausage. Some of that stuff can be pretty bad.

                    There is a place about 45 minutes from me that makes the best link sausage I've ever had. About once a month we make the trip and I stock up. If I had another freezer in the garage I swear I'd buy 10 lbs. at a time.

                  My answer would normally be “yes” in this poll but I decided I needed to pick a side. So I went with sausage. Mainly because Conecuh sausage is a thing of beauty. Split it open and brown it until just brown and crisp….simply put its pork heaven. But, that said, “bacon is undefeated” and I won’t turn either of them down.

                  Except floppy bacon, that crap is for savages.
