BACON is derived from Middle and Old English meaning Back [source[^]]
I found out today that q-u-o-r-n[^] gets its name from a Leicester village. That name is a shortened form of Q*don[^] a name derived from Dun, Old English for Hill, where cweorn, Old English for millstones, are quarried.
So q* is basically named after rock; which coincidentally it looks and tastes like. Again a huge win for the mighty BACON!

Exactly my point! Try to make a flame-thrower out of q*.

Please, don't mention the "Q" word: It may be a landslide at the moment, but we don't want to swing the results[^]

If you use OriginalGriff then the sheep lover loses, loses big. Even Nagy Vilmos does better.

If this quorn is developed in the lap like wikipedia says if you wait enough you will be able to use it as a concrete dissolver.

AFAIC you don't need to wait.

I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well.

Pity she departed, she was one of the few normal, balanced members here...

She's still here, but a new name and she lurks like a lurking thing. I agree though, she was driven away by an idiot who persists in his juvenile and often abusive ways; there is no justice.

one of my favorite sites etymonline.com on bacon: [^].
I had never heard of quorn before.
“But I don't want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.
“Oh, you can't help that,” said the Cat: “we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.”
“How do you know I'm mad?” said Alice.
“You must be," said the Cat, or you wouldn't have come here.” Lewis Carroll

I wish - I really wish - I hadn't looked to see what you meant.
