    Is there a reason you are against nitrates? Nitrates have been found to be carcinogens only in extremely high quantity. I personally go through phases where I'll eat 1 or even 2 lbs of bacon in a week or less, then dont have it for a month or more. When I finished atkins the first time my cholesterol was 155 @ 160lbs (dunno what it was to start, but I started @ 207lbs). All I can say is if you're worried about nitrates, I wouldn't be. If you really need it you can find nitrate free versions at health food stores like Whole Foods, etc. Be prepared to pay 2 to 3x as much for it.
