Served on my own sourdough that was toasted in the bacon grease and smothered with homemade mayo.
I only make this sandwich during peak tomato season. My arteries couldn't do this year round.

I disagree! If it’s peak tomato season that tomato taste nothing like your local grocery store tomatoes
Even in season veggies need seasoning dawg. Just a little salt goes a long way.
Each to their own my man. If we end up eating tomatoes together I’ll also provide a salt shaker without a frown 🤝
I respect that. 👊
I punch you.
Respectfully tho.
That's what the bacon is for.
Bacon is salty you're not wrong. But each ingredient should get seasoned imo.
That said, to each their own.
It makes sense not to salt the tomato directly in this context because adding salt will draw out the water and make your sandwich more soggy. You could probably do it right before eating, but I think the saltiness of the bacon would be fine.
I believe the move is to pat the tomatoes dry to remove the excess water after you salt them to avoid them being to wet.
That said, i typically eont salt my tomatoes just cause im lazy and dont want the extra work lol. But if i did go the extra mile, i would salt them for added flavor.
