Finally, the haram bacon

So yesterday, I had many things planned to get done on my first day here in Canada;

- Get immigration formalities and customs declarations completed;
- Get a SIN
- Get a Canadian number
- Try HARAM BACON

So at the airport, as I was wandering around, I saw the famous Tim Hortons, of course with a long queue.. I was not very hungry as I had just been given a meal on the flight, but I was on a mission hunting for haram bacon!! So I stood in line and bought the sinful sandwich... I did not eat it right away, as I needed to savour this historical moment, you know? So It was hours until I got to my room... And another hour after I settled in...

I put the show I was watching on the plane on, to continue the episode, and just casually grabbed the sandwich and started eating. Apparently, I HAD FORGOTTEN about it being a big deal and all O.o.. I did not realise until half way through that I was eating bacon, then I mumbled to myself with a full mouth; huh so this is bacon! 🥔🤔 I do not see what all the fuss was about being forbidden and all 🤷‍♀️ It tastes like;...meat 🤷‍♀️ I thought the forbidden meat would taste like something.. idk... something 🤷‍♀️

..and then I ate the other half of the sandwich all disappointed O.o

@Longpatrol nope, just ethically vegetarian. But I am Zoroastrian.

@basilfawlty89 I agree. I had a setback after my mum passed away, and found myself pulled back to eating meat, even though when I became vegetarian and then vegan, I did not even have the slightest trouble to cut meat from my diet.. I did it just like that. Anyhow, bacon was something I just needed to try out of curiosity
