  1. Kalam Culinary Argument from Bacon: Whatever begins to start tasting good, begins with the ingredient of bacon; therefore, veganism is false.

    Teleological Argument from Bacon: God created the pig to only need the "seasoning" of fire; therefore, veganism is false. [Joke stolen from Filipino comedian Rex Navarrete's jokes on pigs: Pig Almighty]

    1. Here's an improvement on the Teleological Argument from Bacon:

      God [intelligently] created the pig to [MINIMALLY] need the "seasoning" of fire [to taste great]; therefore, veganism is false.

    1. Wiki states //Argumentum ad baculum (Latin for "argument to the cudgel" or "appeal to the stick") is the fallacy committed when one appeals to force or the threat of force to bring about the acceptance of a conclusion.//

      So, you could call your argument, Argumentum ad baconlum.

    3. Pigs are among the most intelligent animals in the world, and (as they say) "You are what you eat!" It's a little known fact that Latin derives form a purer, more ancient ancestral language that linguists refer to as "Pig Latin". Just as the patriarchs lived longer and were likely more intelligent than their descendants due to genetic purity, so the more primitive lingua porcus later devolved into the vulgar and bastardized speech and writings of Cicero, Seneca, Virgil, Livy, Catullus, Julius Caesar et al.
