As a young adult, in fact I 'OD'd' on bacon and Rocky Road when I first had the financial means, given that my family didn't consume each of those things very often as I grew up. Plus, because they tickled my taste buds at the time, specifically.
So, yeah, every once in a while I'll have some of that ice cream, because... well, it's delicious ice cream, plus it features chocolate!
But the pork-belly stuff? Oh man, I get nauseous now just smelling it, in which it takes me right back to eating all those many pounds of fried, greasy pig-flesh strips when I was ~19yo. Haha, in a way it was like the 50's dad trope of catching his kid smoking behind the garage, then forcing them to chain-smoke on the spot until the kid puked.
BONUS: "Seared strips of swine-flesh? I will enjoy it!"
