Bond's Bacon: 007 Star has Breakfast Flown in From the UK

Daniel Craig at a premiere for Quantum of SolaceSure, James Bond has saved the world's bacon many times over the franchise's 22 films, but does that give him leeway to turn around and smack mother earth in the face by having his favorite pork product flown across the entire European Union? Rumor has it that, during the filming Quantum of Solace in Italy, Daniel Craig was unable find a decent strip of bacon in the whole boot-shaped nation. That's when he decided to order out -- to the good ol' UK.

Ordering bacon from 1,000 miles away is certainly one of the quickest and most effective ways to boost your breakfast's carbon footprint. The irony of it is that the villain in the latest Bond flick is a kind of greenwashing eco-terrorist and Bond plays the unlikely champion of the South American watershed. The whole affair has shades of Woody Harrelson demanding his vegan belt be flown to Cannes earlier this year.

Of course, the report of Craig's supposed eco-treachery comes from PETA. Considering the source, 007's eco-foul could have been something as innoculous as sending someone a gift basket from the UK with a packet of dried bacon bits in it. Who really knows?
