If smoking kills how come it cures bacon?

Answer:
Ho ho, very funny, but I think you'll find it's 1) a different curing process and 2) the bacon's already dead ! ! !

help detect
laser traps.'

Cause the pig is puffing on hickory or applewood, after having a bath in sugar and molasses. Most people still stick to tobacco or other "herbal" things. Maybe they should be smoking sawdust instead.

ha ha...Smoking cigarettes or tobacco kills...Bacon is by definition cured. some brands of nitrite-free bacon are being sold as "uncured."
Uncured means that the bacon hasn't been cured in the traditional way using sodium nitrate or sodium nitrite to preserve the pork and keep it pink or red. Instead, the uncured versions generally use salt, lactic acid starter culture and celery juice, which is loaded with natural sodium nitrate, to create the distinctive bacon flavor.

different kind of smoke, genius...

hahaha good bloody question!!

Good question! It takes a smart man to ask a good question and a smart man to recognice a good question!Yes, smoke cures bacon, but it ends up with a terrible amount of lard, and high body fat!The diet and execise needed to get rid of all that excess will kill you.
Feel sorry for the bacon.
