Still more on cooking in the nude, from science-fiction writer Joe Haldeman,
in his story collection \\Infinite Dreams//:

"... Lower-case bacon, I know a great deal about, including an infallible
method for cooking perfect bacon every time. Cook it in the nude. This
trains you to keep the heat down so it won't stick or spatter, and it
can't burn."

Has anybody tried this? I'm curious as to whether it works; unfortunately,
bacon is fairly low on my list of favorite foods.
