With all his snuffling and grunting this man is really growing on me but he does keep telling porky pies. Microwaved bacon sandwich?!? he does have the grace to say it “should come out nice and crispy”, but I can tell you now it doesn’t. I happen to know this because my mum, a reluctant cook at the best of times, has done it thus for decades and I still can’t bear the floppy dishrags produced that way. Mind you, she does buy wet cure bacon then goes on to make her sandwiches in not a panini toaster, nor a George Forman grill, but the original, ’70s modern miracle sandwich toaster – its non-stick surfaces coated with three decades’ worth of rancified margarine, also apparent on its not-very-cleanable exterior – which doesn’t exactly add to the appeal.
