ummm...I'm old enough that I remember when a thermometer broke, I would play with the mercury with my fingers. Not for too long though. I'm still here at AARP-age.
I didn't say what I said to justify it, or minimize Mercury's dangers, we just did 'dangerous' crap back then and somehow got away with it, like riding a bike without a helmet, and playing hockey without a helmet, and walking to the store by ourselves. Now if I ate it, it would be a different story and this comment would not exist. Bacon and eggs are good...keto I think, and good fats (organic best)....animal fats have gotten a bad rap, and margarine/carb thought to be better. Everything in moderation.
Absolutely, but stating this puts a hole in your analogy.
Look, I'm not here to make you recreate your argument. I get your point, I'm simply stating it would've been a better analogy to use in 2003, prior to the keto trend where we can all jump up and say "nuh-uh keto!" afterwards.

Yeah but there are people over a hundred years old that eat bacon and eggs every morning for their entire lives.
Doesn't mean you should do it ya know

Keto is wonderful but carbs screw it up.
Bacon is still considered a fairly bad meat for you though -- not due to the fats, but nitrites and nitrates.
The keto diet will tell you otherwise.
Different. On keto, you metabolize fat and protein differently than when carbs (and therefore insulin) enter the mix.
