This year we are spending easter holidays with the GFs family and I at least need to put up a well thought out argument so I can eat bacon while everyone else is stuck with toast.

Surely someone here has a mind warped enough or loves bacon enough to help me out.

bacon is meat also FYL for dating a Catholic.

also its not even a sin for them to eat meat. they can eat fish and eggs

fwiw your only allowed one meal on good Friday and its the longest mass of the yr. over 3 hours iirc.

Like chicken is poultry, bacon= swine. Kind of a slippery slope argument with lots of holes... I know. But just trying to help you reason with it. GL

Tell GF's family that you went out of your way to buy "vegetarian bacon". That this special bacon is cut out of the pig without killing it. Like a liposuction. So it's kind of like milk, where the animal didnt have to die. So it's vegetarian. Tell them that you paid incredible amounts of $$$ to get this delicacy. Maybe fake a nice package. "Happy Pig Bacon" with a photoshopped pig missing it's bacon.

Try not to laugh.

Btw I gave up meat + alcohol for lent. And I'm not even baptized. LOL.

It says nothing about abstaining on certain days!

The practice of not eating meat on Fridays (all Fridays) dates back to about the fourth century. It is written in some writings of that time that it was a practice, but does not say it was a sin. Anyone who says it is a sin would have to prove it by the Bible, and the Bible says that requiring people to abstain from meat is itself a sin. Anyone who chooses not to eat meat on any particular day is within their rights to do so. Anyone who requires it of others is absolutely wrong.

I say eat to your hearts content and ask them to show you in the bible where it says not to eat meat!

Don't lie, explain the truth, and this^^^^^^

God Loves.

why not eat bacon before going to breakfast if you love having it

seems reasonable to have bacon at your house and eggs at theirs

tell them their daughter once in a while eats "sausages" and therefore you both agreed you were allowed to eat bacon on Friday as they both come from a pig.

Single "sausage" or multiple "sausages"? If the latter, OP had better post (swinger) TR.

LOL religion.

This quote from the 300 seems oddly appropriate.

"This day, we rescue a world from mysticism and tyranny and usher in a future brighter than anything we can imagine".

Those greeks were trying to make the world safe for bacon eaters like you. Don't let the Xerxes and his minions (your gilrfriends family) allow the greeks to have died for nothing!

Let loose your rallying cry:

BAAAAAAAAAAACOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNN!!!!!!

Cook your own breakfast? I've laid out the worst case scenario in script format:

KITCHEN INT. EARLY MORNING

A young man stands over a sizzling frying pan with a fork. As he starts to remove the perfectly cooked bacon from the pan and place it on his breakfast plate, his girlfriend's mother enters the kitchen.

GF's Mom: Oh, we don't eat meat on Fridays.

Young Man: Sweet, I don't share my bacon ever. Lets do breakfast on Fridays more often. This works out well for me.

Young Man sits down and starts eating bacon.
