Looks great. How much saturated fat in that, more than spare ribs? Kidding. My wife makes great carbonara with pancetta. Sometimes the pancetta is excellent, sometimes it is rather average and not worth the cost, so no harm with bacon in my book. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconcheers.gif)

The fat content is whatever you get from the Bacon or Panchetta and the tablespoon of olive oil I add to the pasta water to give it some additional flavor (from whatever oil clings to the pasta when I drain it and whatever oil goes into the egg yolks for the sauce.
I am one of those people who never find fault with bacon.
