Nothing Says Love Like a Bacon Bouquet

All we need now is Bon Jovi to sing “I Wanna Lay You Down in a Bed of “Bacon” Roses“…. a guaranteed sure fire hit!

Banned In Iran

To be honest, I don’t have the source of this and don’t know the full accuracy but I have heard that most of these are prohibited over there. Come on Iran…I mean Snoop Dogg, whiskey and bacon. Now that’s just taking it too far. These are just a few of the reasons I wouldn’t be able to survive over there.

When Pigs Fly: The Bacon Rocket Experiment

Heesa Phadie — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 13:30:02 +0000

Bacon…rockets…Popeye t-shirt…fire…windows…bacon music…smoke detectors…there’s really not much more that needs to be said here. The wonderful boys over at Rather Good have put together an experiment to see if pigs really can fly.

You can download the MP3 of the song here.

10 Fantastic Vintage Bacon Advertisements

Who doesn’t love bacon, even pigs love bacon and so do vegetarians. There really is nothing to not like about bacon with it’s crispy, salty, fatty deliciousness. It can be added to almost anything to enhance the flavor of an otherwise bland dish.

The popularity of bacon recently seems to have skyrocketed a bit but I’ve discovered more than a few vintage advertisements that prove it’s been holding it’s own for quite some time now. It’s hard to say which one is my favorite…the toaster worthy Reddi-Bacon, the promise from Swift’s Premium Bacon that it’s the “food for the new generation” or the statement by Swift’s that “Authorities recommend bacon for children.”

Hands down, the best ornament this far has been the candy cane… I mean, it’s candy, it looks cool, and they’re inexpensive. However, looks like there’s a new contender for the best Christmas ornament, its just too bad you can’t eat it too.

Bacon Flavored Vodka: Yes, It’s Real

Dr. Intoxicated — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 14:15:19 +0000

Ever wake up hungover, unsure of how you ended up in a chicken coop covered in vomit and sparkly body paint? No? Well you’re not drinking hard enough.

Anyway in this situation you have a choice. That choice? To suck it up and go get breakfast or to take a hair of that hell hound Cerberus you gave you one hell of a nasty bite.

Well that choice just got a lot simpler.

Yes, it’s real. If you don’t believe me check out the website.

I’m not a vodka man but this would make a bloody mary even Francis Bacon couldn’t refuse. (You know because he was the inventor of bacon, or maybe that was Kevin Bacon who I also believe is the first actor made entirely out of bacon which is why no thespian wants to be more than six degrees from him.)

Anyway between eggnog and Bakon vodka it’ll be a holiday season you’ll never forget, or remember.

Best Bacon Application Ever: Bacon-Flavored Envelopes

Evol Jess — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 20:44:01 +0000

I hate licking envelopes, always have. So thank god there’s a solution for that now. Remember the company that brought us awesome combinations like baconnaise and bacon salt? Well they’re at it again, and this time, they’re not just making something awesome, they’re solving a problem, the problem of the horrible taste that comes from licking standard envelopes. They’ve managed to make bacon-flavored envelopes, called MMMVELOPES.

Here it is in their own words:

“Technology has given us a lot lately. The car. TV. X-rays. The refrigerator. The Internet. Heck, we even cured polio. But what have our envelopes tasted like for the last 4,000 years? Armpit, that’s what.

So, after thousands of years and kajillions of horrible tasting envelopes licked, we’re happy to report that J&D’s Bacon-Flavored Mmmvelopes™ are here to save the day. No longer will envelopes taste like the underside of your car. You can enjoy the taste of delicious bacon instead.”

I don’t think I’ve sent a letter in a decade, but I just ordered some of these, so you can all expect to receive something in the mail from me quite soon. Is it possible to die from licking too many mmmvelopes? If so, I’m sticking to the bacon jam.

Bacon Jam: It’s Bacon You Can SPREAD

Evol Jess — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:31:37 +0000

What’s better than bacon? Nothing, unless it’s a new way to get it in my mouth (that’s what she said). We’ve seen bacon soap, bacon mayonnaise, and bacon sheriffs, well here’s bacon jam… it’s bacon… you can spread!

Oh, and you can buy it here.

Somebody’s Got To Protect The Bacon

Ryan Deal — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 16:24:00 +0000

Let’s face it, when it comes to men, there are only three things we care about, boobs, money, and bacon. Now, we’ve got bra’s to protect the boobs (unfortunately) and banks to protect our money (in theory), but who’s gonna protect our bacon? These guys!
