Curtis Holland may have a future in bacon advocacy—or as a late-night TV host. The precocious boy loves bacon. When it was removed from his diet as part of a “Wife Swap” episode, he objected, “No, I want my bacon! I gotta tell you somethin’, bacon is good for me! This is very mean!”
With pearls of wisdom like, “She acts like she’s the queen and we’re the sorry people,” he let everyone know in no uncertain terms that bacon belongs in his house, a house where he is known as the little ‘king.’
In complete frustration, he packed his bags in protest and headed down the driveway, narrating every step of the way.
