Yup, if you can make your own or spice it up with some stuff (for example, mayo + honey mustard) it can taste very very good. It's one of the only places where you can actually customize the sandwich, because tomatoes, lettuce, and bacon are pretty standard. The bread is best as normal whitebread, because if you get some weird crap like ciabatta or a sub, it's just not the same... | ||

DOES NOT COMPUTE Bacon is good but you want to be able to taste the other awesome parts of the sandwich as well  - 2 Slices of bread, put bacon and cheese on one and toast/grill it until the cheese goes nice and gooey. - Spread Ranch or Mayo on the other toasted slice of bread. - Salt and Pepper if you choose! - Put lettuce and tomato on the cheese and bacony slice then close it up. - Enjoy delicious toasted BLTC | ||

most of the fat comes off in the cooking process anyway the worst part about bacon is the sodium nitrate and other preservatives they put into it nowdays | ||

But yes, BLT's are a staple of my home. Mayo is definitive. However, the ranch idea sounds so great, that my taste buds are already clamoring. Actually, I'm thinking some basil leaves would make an awesome BLT too, but not too much, because I'm sure it would overpower everything. Man I think I have my sandwich for lunch planned out already. | ||
