I had some pretty awesome fries the other day that were fried in olive oil.

I'll save the grease from cooking bacon to use for making french fries. They taste much much better than when I use the deep fryer.

And a good way to obtain clear bacon grease is to cook them in the oven, rather than in a skillet. Very easy to do, and it does not splatter grease everywhere and stink up the kitchen. I use some cookie cooling rack thingies, placing the bacon on top. I set that in an edged baking sheet lined with foil. Cook @ 400 for 20-25 minutes depending on the thickness and how well you like your bacon done.

The fat drops down to the foil, and can easily be poured when cooled a bit. Comes out very clean and clear.

Lots of info out there on baking your bacon, rather than frying. And then you can get into glazing too.
