    Keto works by eliminating carbs. Not by eating bacon. Although it is all about fat and protein.

    It 100% doesn’t mean bacon is good for you.

      Bacon is fat. It is not good, not bad, it is neutral.

      The process of making bacon, however, can be bad if done incorrectly, since frying some oils (not bacon itself) at too high temperature can lead to not so healthy elements. But if you use heigh temperature oils and control the skillet temperature, or simply microwave bacon, then there is not issue here. Fat is fat, safer than simple carbs to consume for calories.

          Of course, but modern diet of average American have way too much simple carbs, so, if any correction needs to be done, it is in the direction of substituting carbs with fats (and proteins to less extend). More over, since an average American most likely already developed some level of insulin resistance, significant reduction of carbs required to desensitize the organism from insulin. Otherwise, welcome to metabolic syndrom.
