haha. To be honest, I REALLY love vegetables and healthy stuff like whoa. I do really like meat though and need a lot of protein. I try to have two veggies for lunch and dinner and then rice or beans and then a meat but when I cook any kind of meat/poultry/pork [with the exception of bacon omg omnomnom] I tend to trim the fat, and reserve the "Don'tCares" for the rare times I go crazy with the bacon and such. So, while I do love me some bacon fat, I don't have it very often. All things in moderation right?

Er... even moderation? I never figured that one out.

I think some of it is culturally typical foodstuffs too.
I like blood sausage but it's not typical "American fare", though more people in various parts of the world will tend to enjoy it.

I would be willing to be you would get more Americans stating that they don't prefer meat fat than some
individuals who identify with other cultures. Not across the board, obviously. But some flavors are more preferred generally in certain places than others.

Put a little peanut butter on the celery. [a little bit!]
Then you get some protein too. Yeah, it's fat but it's not a lot if you don't eat a lot and you need some fat in your diet... though I will conceded it does not need to be bacon fat.
